“Sport and physical education as a vehicle for Inclusion and Recognition in India, Indonesia and Sri Lanka”

This project is a part of ERASMUS+ program titled “Sport and physical education as a vehicle for Inclusion and Recognition in India, Indonesia and Sri Lanka / SPIRIT”.

The project tries to address two existing problems in the 3 partner countries involved (Sri Lanka, India and Indonesia):

1. Growing chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have emerged as a huge global health problem in low- and middle-income countries. The magnitude of the rise of NCDs is particularly visible in Southeast Asia where limited resources have been used to address this rising epidemic.

2. Around the world, young people need free time, space and fellowship to enjoy sport and play. While the need for the activities of sport is global in scope, the ability to be included often is not.
