SPIN - Sport Inclusion Network

Building an international network to remove barriers to sport for refugees, migrants, and marginalised groups.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐍?

𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞. Yet refugees, migrants, and ethnic minorities, especially women and girls, still face real barriers to participating in sport and physical activity. These barriers can be even greater when combined with discrimination based on gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or social status.

𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐍, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤, 𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭

𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭. We connect grassroots organisations, minority initiatives, and self-organised groups with sport clubs, associations, NGOs, and public institutions, creating opportunities to learn, collaborate, and make sport more inclusive.

𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒕𝒔 𝒂𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒆

We put grassroots initiatives and minority-led organisations first. Because lasting change happens when communities are not only included, but empowered to lead it themselves.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧

𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞. We believe the strength of a network lies in the diversity of its members. That's why we bring organisations together across Europe and the Global South to work for social inclusion in and through sport.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲

In 2010, 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 NGOs and sport organisations from across Europe launched the first SPIN project to tackle the underrepresentation of migrants, ethnic minorities, and asylum seekers in mainstream sport. What started as a project grew into an informal network behind a series of initiatives, including ESPIN, Sport Welcomes Refugees, SPIN Women, SPIN Refugees, and SPIN Youth. In 2023, we took the next step: opening the network to organisations across Europe and the Global South, and formally establishing SPIN as an international non profit under Austrian law. Today, we're growing that network further and inviting more organisations to join us.

As part of the now completed 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐍 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭, we explored this question with young people across 𝟖 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 through action research.

The findings showed that participation can be shaped by many different barriers, from financial and logistical challenges to language, cultural, social and structural barriers.

But identifying barriers is only the first step.

In June, the 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐓𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝟒 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 partners came together in 𝐏𝐚𝐨𝐮, 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐜𝐞, for our first project meeting.

Eight organisations. Six countries. One shared goal: using sport to bring young people together and build stronger, more connected communities.

This was the first step in a three year journey of collaboration, learning and action through sport.

And we’re just getting started.

For 18 months, SPIN worked together with partners in the Sahrawi refugee camps near Tindouf, Algeria, to make sport and physical education more inclusive for children and young people.

From a 5 day multiplier training near Tindouf to local trainings across all five camps, more than 70 trainers and teachers took part in learning and putting inclusive methods into practice.

Along the way, we:

▫️Trained educators in inclusive sport methods
▫️Delivered local trainings across all 5️⃣ camps
▫️Involved hundreds of children and young people in sport based activities
▫️Provided new and age appropriate sports equipment
▫️Developed a training manual in English and Arabic

For SPIN, this project was also a first in two important ways.

🥇 Our first time working directly in a refugee camp context.
🥇 Our first project as a registered organisation on the African continent.

Most importantly, this journey was about people. About sharing knowledge, building trust and discovering how sport can create connection, belonging and community even in challenging contexts.

The project has now come to a close.
But the partnership isn’t. 🤝

A heartfelt thank you to our partners, trainers, teachers and everyone who helped make this journey possible. ❤️

Sport and play in a refugee context have a multitude of benefits, especially for children and youth. All this became visible during our visit to the Sahrawi camps near Tindouf in last week.

Concluding 18 months of partnership with the Sahrawi Ministry of Education and Vocational Training and Uisp Nazionale, we delivered our final project milestone, an inclusive sport event in each camp, facilitated by a wonderful team of teachers that has been working with us for one year to make this possible. A heartful thanks to all involved!
