🎓Sociology of sport? 🇪🇺Europe? 🌍Whole world? 🇫🇮Jyväskylä!

We're glad we could participate in a joint conference of the World and European sociology of sport associations in , Finland. We presented outcomes of our continuous cooperation with 🇨🇿 , and its Fair Play Football League in Czech Republic. Specifically, we observed the programme's potential for social cohesion in the community. We are thankful that our colleagues invite us to their events and help us develop further scholarship in the area of sport for development.

The last few days meant a lot of inspiring contacts, discussions, listening to presentations and spending time with great people from the community of sociology of sport.

Thanks for that👋

🗣️Another field trip to sport-and-development related organisations finished ‼️

During the last two days, our international group of students from the EUSportDev project visited a number of organisations in Prague, Czechia, who use the potential of sport for social change.🌏

Our hosts were:
🇺🇳UN Prague office,
⏮️drop-in Reset centre with a workshop with games supporting the personal and social development organised by our colleagues,
🏬
and
🥊a boxing club, .

Such an enriching mix of various perspectives of the use of sport and movement activities for personal, cultural and social development nicely concluded the semester at the Palacky University in Olomouc. Our module, supported by Erasmus 🇪🇺, introduces students to the EU perspective of the conception of sports used for non-sporting goals, from the theoretical background, basic EU documents, to the practical examples of activities for people with handicaps or from disadvantaged backgrounds.

👋Many thanks to everyone participating in the visits and see you next time.

New tool for practitioners.

During the last year, we have collaborated on a project , with Fair Play Point, Trenuj Bycie Dobrym and Második Esély Sportegyesület - MESE 2.0 (Second Chance Sport Association).

Conveying Fair Play and reflection methods in sports is part of our intervention and what leads to the impact we want to reach out of the pitch. To help our educators, so-called 'mediators' in our process, we have created a set of handy tools that guides the participants in their self-reflection and eventually self-development. Dive right into the toolbox to explore those tools and test them within your own environment.

The toolbox can be downloaded here:
