Dissemination Events: Sports Activator in Antakya Hatay, Turkey

In Antakya, Hatay, Turkey, Sports Activator was implemented with 18 adults and 64 students, a total of 82 people participated. They were informed about the Sports Activator project that took place in Romania and about Erasmus+. They created a day dedicated to Sports Activator. As they were already aware of the value of sports activities, the event has been important to share different cultural activities. The dissemination had a good impact. İrfan Kalin said that they were excited to hear about the Romanian project and eager to start the activities.

 

Sports Activator is co-funded by Erasmus+ Sport Programme, with the support of the European Union.

Sports Activator project had two main meetings in Romania, which involved more than 70 participants from 8 countries and different communities. We managed to gather together sport teachers, trainers, youth workers, volunteers, coaches, people involved in sport clubs and different participants with various backgrounds in the sports field. 

 

One of the meetings objectives was to create a toolbox with helpful information about a healthy lifestyle, nutrition, physical activity, games and methods that can contribute to decrease the rate of physical inactivity among youngsters. Everybody contributed to this brochure with personal experience, examples of good practice, games and methods that they have already tried and worked very well among the young people.

 

After the international mobilities, the participants had the mission to share their learning achievements by facilitating international sports events in their local communities. So far 20 offline and online events were organised, in Spain, Greece, Turkey and Bulgaria, that involved 659 participants.
