SIMPLE
What is the project SIMPLE?
The initiative is an ERASMUS-SPORT-2023-SSCP (Project no. 101134763) project named
“SIMPLE: Sport, Inclusion, Movement, Participation, Learning, Environment”. The project aims
to build a nexus between sport, social inclusion and environmental protection through physical
activity, sustainable practices and a connection with local nature. The activities of the project
are focused on the inclusion of people with disabilities through sport.
In particular, the project aims to achieve the following specific objectives:
To promote equal access to sport and recreational activities for people with disabilities as a
tool to prevent discrimination and enhance equal opportunities and well-being, tackling
specific barriers based on lack of accessibility and inclusion in sport for people with
disabilities.
To promote the involvement of young people in sports from an early age to create life-long
habits that positively impact their health and well-being.
To raise the awareness of citizens about their impact on the environment, engaging them
with sustainable sports activities.
To increase the capacity of the grassroots sport sector, social organizations and public
authorities to promote inclusion through sport and increase equal participation in sport for
youth and people with disabilities.
