Two recent calls for proposals were published by the European Commission with the overall aim at supporting sport-related projects focusing on the potential of sport and physical activity as a tool for social inclusion of refugees and to promote a better integration of populations at risk of exclusion and radicalisation in the society.

The selection has now been made by the European Commission. A total of seven pilot projects have been selected under the Call for proposals on “Sport as a tool for integration and social inclusion of refugees” (see list of selected projects) and five projects under the Call on “Monitoring and coaching, through sports, of youngsters at risk of radicalisation” (see list of selected projects).
