1st European conference on Equality in Sport, Schools and Society

This conference is aimed at teachers, sports leaders, policy makers and key experts from the fields of education, sport, civil society and research institutions to review best practices and achievements of sport and education providers in this field.

The course provides opportunities for teachers to develop the skills and understanding to help them to combine formal teaching with sports-based pedagogies to tackle issues of racism and discrimination, as well as to involve communities and wider society in the process.

The conference will be of particular interest to teachers, educationalists, police, community groups, students, researchers, people involved in sports and anyone involved in voluntary work in the frontline of educational and social change. It will include sportsbased activities and will present findings from both the in-service course and the schools focused work.
