Why this initiative is so relevant?
Despite the efforts made by EU Member States, discrimination based on race and xenophobia, is spreading in European societies, targeting especially people with a migrant background, asylum seekers and refugees, and ethnic and religious minorities. In this context, towns and municipalities are joining forces to create territories of intercultural coexistence and social cohesion.
This year, on the international Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, SCORE launched an interactive map that identifies all the sport initiatives aiming to fight racism across Europe and beyond.
