The project ”MiSport - Migrants inclusion through Sports” represents an initiative implemented by France, Bulgaria, Italy, Greece and Romania. There are several sources and causes for the migrant phenomenon that through the objectives and activities of this project we seek to offer solutions.

2. Need of more awareness in the society about the strategic potential of sport in social inclusion.
3. Define common strategies to reach an efficient and real immigrant integration through sport;
4. Need of more collaboration structures and networks for exchanging good practices and knowledge;
5. Remote areas as Reunion Island have difficulties to reach European innovation and to exchange good practices with other EU partners because extra costs for traveling.
6. Lifelong learning is necessary for sport facilitators, teachers and social workers who continuously need to learn about good practices and working methods, and always improve their work.
7. Need of integrated strategies to deal with immigrant inclusion through sport, involving all stakeholders.
Through this project, the partners are aiming to promote innovative sport initiatives for social inclusion and equal opportunities for immigrants in Europe. Sport is also one of the means through which values as solidarity, diversity, inclusion, cultural awareness and peace are promoted.
