Sport Together 4 peace - Cross-community social inclusion of young people affected by conflicts is an Erasmus+ Sport project running from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2028.

Challenges and new approaches to include Young People with Diverse Background in European Sport / Herausforderungen und neue Ansätze zur Einbindung junger Menschen mit unterschiedlichem Hintergrund in den europäischen Sport

Around 350 children and youth took part in sport events in all 5 Sahrawi refugee camps in mid-May, boosting awareness of sport benefits for health, inclusion, and community-building.

Providing inclusive sport for young Sahrawi refugees requires an approach suitable to the context. In cooperation with Sahrawi partners and UISP, we have put together this training manual to support the effort.

Coming 16 and 17 of April 2026, the capital of Portugal, Lisbon, will welcome members of the SPIN network for their General Assembly meeting followed by the European network conference “Inclusion and Empowerment of Young People with Diverse Background in Sport”.

In local trainings across all 5 refugee camps, Sahrawi educators received input and new methods for inclusive sport and physical education for children and youth.

"United for Inclusion" is the motto as SPIN Youth project panels in 8 countries pilot their action plan activities

The SPIN project "Inclusive Sport for Young Sahrawi Refugees" completed its multiplier training in the camps near Tindouf.

Project Partners gathered in Helsinki, Finland, for a 2-day meeting and culturally rich social program.
