“Sport and Health avoids living rooms and alibis, but chooses to be in the workshop to face problems and find solutions. It is with this spirit of concreteness that projects are born capable of addressing central issues such as the relationship between school and sport and plant engineering. I am referring to “Scuola Attiva Kids and Junior” but also to “Illumina”, the new approach to widespread sports facilities which creates a social contract between young and old and brings together the suburbs and centers of cities throughout Italy. What you need is to have the ideas and the desire to do, the rest comes by itself.”
This was stated by Diego Nepi Molineris, CEO of Sport and Health, who spoke in Bologna at the presentation of the three-year regional sports plan 2024-2026.
“The success of the “Scuola Attiva” project here in Emilia-Romagna shows everyone that it can be done. The Region immediately identified the path of change that Sport and Health represents by choosing to invest in sport and physical activity as a lever for educational and cultural development. Here, therefore, is the investment in our project “Scuola Attiva Kids for inclusive Emilia Romagna” with the experimentation that brought motor education and physical activity not only to all primary school classes but also to middle school. ‘childhood. This is the proactive and concrete approach that we appreciate and which also characterizes Sport and Health. Challenges can be won when you want.”
The “Active Kids School for inclusive Emilia-Romagna” project involved as many as 444 primary and nursery schools, 3,540 classes, 70,590 students in the 2023-2024 school year, with the contribution of 230 tutors and the involvement of 25 national sports federations.
Specifically, the experimentation of physical activity in nursery school involved 1730 pupils in 100 classes of 62 schools in Emilia-Romagna.
