STREETS PROJECT - 2020
Streets To Raise European Education Through Sport
STREETS is a 24 months Project with the aim to promote street sports. The main priorities of the Project are to save, to keep active some urban areas in the cities or villages (in particular abandoned zones), and to support prevention, educational and innovative approaches to tackle violence, racism and intolerance in sport. The initiative wants to support the implementation of the European Week of Sport which is an event launched by the European Commission to promote sport and physical activities in the European Union, that usually takes place during the last week of September. Target group: athletes, coaches, trainers, amateurs, presidents, sport stakeholders, physiotherapists, volunteers and nutritionists, especially from 18 until 45 years old. The target sports are skateboarding, parkour, free running, street basketball, street volleyball, street soccer, handball, etc. STREETS wants to promote sport activities avoiding the risk of violence, racism and intolerance in this kind of context, beside the willingness to safeguard the urban areas and to highlight the importance of health-enhancing physical activities through equal access to sport for all.
