About the project
Societies are facing several challenges due to an increasingly demanding lifestyle. Individuals are focused on themselves and more likely to establish relationships through social networks/online. Population is subject to high levels of stress aggravated by the difficulties of conciliating work and personal/family life. The average life expectancy is increasing, thus requiring from the public administration a more efficient health system (making of illiness prevention a core stone of the communities' health resilience).
Some policymakers are answering to these societal challenges by implementing strategies to "use" community sports to strength the heath resilience of their communities. This way the project will promote exchange activities focused on:
- The mechanisms/conditions needed to make sport programs effective tools for health promotion
- The impact of community sports in the promotion of mental health
- The promotion of social skills development through community sports
