Proud to be invited to the event. Personally, it was a great opportunity to observe a social potential of sports in practice and a vivid community of people, incredibly devoted to their work. As a part of the project, we gathered a set of data from a focus group and individual interviews with coaches to further support the project deliverables and the evaluation methodology of the partners.

📢Last week, a series of presentations and a panel discussion named Sport as a Bridge🔗 took place in , 15th May.

Co-organised by Palacký University in Olomouc🎓 and Fair Play Point🫶, it brought together partners and stakeholders from various sectors of , social work, public administration and business sector. Jointly, we discussed potentials of sharing know-how, methods and experience with using sports and movement for non-sporting goals:

•Sport as a tool in work with children and youth from disadvantaged background
•Potential of sport in supporting
•What can companies and professional clubs do within their and activities
•What support can and wants to offer the public administration.

The event was too short and too broad in topics to bring specific joint outcomes and agreements. Still, we feel that we have the right direction with mainstreaming, networking and advocacy of the topics. Step by step, we move forward💪😀.

Many thanks to presenters, panelists and moderators🧑‍🎓📝🎤

"Potential of Sports as a Tool for Social Cohesion: Football for Development in Olomouc Region"

Today, we presented our study of the Football for Development project and its influence on the of a community at the Olomouc Sociology Conference.

As the building blocks of the social cohesion viewed by the project's participants, the study revealed: shared values, integration, openness of activities, safe places, family and friends. It was a nice cross-sectional experience aimed at the practical (evaluation of the programme) and theoretical (concept of social cohesion) goals.

More details will follow at the beginning of 2025 in the new book:
