In today’s dynamic societal landscape, the significance of inclusivity in sports cannot be overstated. Recognised across various sectors, the “SPORTS 4 ALL” initiative emerges as a source of innovation and inspiration. Supported by the European Commission under the Erasmus+ Sport program, this extensive project underscores the transformative potential of sports in fostering diversity and inclusion.

The initiative aims to integrate children affected by educational poverty into sports activities, emphasising the profound role of sports in personal and social development. 


ALDA, as a key partner in this consortium, contributes invaluable expertise in promoting good governance and citizen participation.


“SPORTS 4 ALL” signifies a movement towards creating a more inclusive society through the universal language of sports. By empowering educators, coaches, and trainers with innovative methodologies and activities, the initiative not only enhances the physical well-being of children but also instils vital values such as teamwork, respect, and perseverance.

Through meticulously designed exercises and strategies, “SPORTS 4 ALL” endeavours to dismantle barriers, foster mutual understanding, and lay the groundwork for a more inclusive future. This initiative serves as a poignant reminder of sports’ potential in addressing educational disparities and promoting social inclusion.

As we disseminate the insights and methodologies of “SPORTS 4 ALL,” we extend an open invitation to communities, schools, and sports organisations to join the collective action of making sports accessible and enjoyable for all. This document serves as a resounding call to action – a commitment to embedding inclusivity as a cornerstone of youth sports programs worldwide.

With “SPORTS 4 ALL,” we are going towards a future where every child has the opportunity to thrive, learn, and flourish within a supportive and inclusive sporting environment.
