In these long Olympic days there has been much talk about the values that sport can teach. Well, let’s remember them.
Formative _ As part of an education conceived as a path that accompanies the citizen throughout his life, from childhood to old age. And for young people, educational sport not as a resource for deviance or recovery from marginality, but rather as an integral part of the overall formation of the person.
Health Prevention _To prevent and counteract the damage caused by current lifestyles, childhood obesity and increased life expectancy.
Recreational_To help all ages rediscover the taste for play, an important component of sport, leisure and collective education.
Education to democracy_Respect for the rules, for others, assumption of responsibility, sense of community.
Inclusion and social cohesion_The great challenge of the coming decades, inclusion. The practice of sports can be one of the tools to positively address the problem of integration of immigrants and offer an answer to the problem of fragmentation of our society that produces lack of relationships, isolation of some vulnerable groups, the elderly, disabled, unemployed.
Economic social_ In addition to the sport show, even the practice of mass sports can ensure new and interesting levels of employment. The employment possibilities offered by sport are even greater when sport intersects with social policies and makes public investment in sports promotion more plausible.
