Sport is a universal language. At its best it can bring people together, no matter what their origin, background, religious beliefs or economic status is. When young people participate in sports or have
access to physical education, they can experience real exhilaration even as they learn the ideals of teamwork and tolerance.
The EU encourages support for sport and physical activity through various policy initiatives in the field of education and training, including the development of social and civic competences.
That is why we turned to the world of sport for help in our work for fight against discrimination of any kind (gender, race, religion), social exclusion and doping.
