European Prize for Social Integration Through Sport, 2015

Sport brings educational benefits because of the values it promotes such as respect, tolerance and self-control. As such, it can bring about positive social change and be used as a tool of prevention and education for topics such as discrimination, racism and violence.

Are you running a social integration project through sport that you wish to make known at the European level ? Why not apply through one of the five categories of the European Prize for Social Integration Through Sport ?

Categories:
- Prevention of and fight against racism
- Promotion of gender equality
- Integration of marginalised populations
- Integration of populations at risk
- Education about active citizenship or fair play

Award
The winner in each category will receive financial support (up to €8,000) to be used to organise a local event to promote their project.

The five winning projects as well as any other project deemed particularly interesting by the jury will be featured in a publication focused on the role of sport as a tool to strengthen social cohesion, which will be targeted at European political decision-makers.
