Objectives

We implemented the youth exchange “Sport On game” in order to offer to our young people including people wit disabilities the opportunity to interact with their peers from other countries. The objectives of this project were as follow: 1- To make a group of young people (including young people with special needs or with fewer opportunities) coming from 5 European countries, aware about the physical, psychic and socio-cultural value of traditional sport games by practicing, and to offer them the opportunity to cooperate, prepare and play together traditional sport games from their regions/countries. 2- To develop the well-being of a group of young people (including young people with special needs and/or fewer opportunities) & promote intercultural dialogue and social inclusion by putting them into action through practice of traditional and fun sports games. 3- To make the young beneficiaries and the wide public of our community aware for the traditions and cultural heritage of their country & encourage the intergenerational sharing and the conviviality found in these traditional sport games. 4- To promote the culture of social cohesion by encouraging intercultural exchanges among beneficiaries and to improve the self-esteem of each participant. To promote team spirit and sustainable creativity. An intercultural dynamic will emerge through traditional team sports games. 5- To promote traditional sport games as an effective tool for inclusion, dialogue and collective creativity to the young beneficiaries of this exchange. Our program met the priorities of the Erasmus + program as it promoted equality, social inclusion, solidarity, active participation and creativity of young people. Through this program we could show how to fight social discrimination, favoring tolerance and acceptance of the different by discovering and practicing together traditional sports games of the participating countries. Upon completion of the program, young people proved their personal dynamics, their collective creativity and the ability to achieve positive change in social relations and promoting the cultural heritage of their country.
