Project Summary

The PlayIn project is a European project taking place in France (FACE), Italy (CESIE), Lithuania (LSU), Denmark (BrainLog) and Spain (Growthcoop) and financed by the Erasmus+ agency. Its objectives are to promote the skills of young volunteers in sports organisations and to promote the actors involved in socio-professional inclusion through sport.
For 27 months, the project partners have built, in collaboration with the actors concerned
– A pedagogical guide to support volunteers in the self-identification and valorisation of skills acquired during their sport experience(s) in the workplace. A PlayIn certificate is available at the end of this guide so that the sports organisation can formalise the recognition of the young person’s skills.
– A toolkit for sports organisations presenting the best inclusive practices in each project partner country. Sport organisations can find inspiration in this toolkit to set up their own actions to promote the socio-professional inclusion of young people.
– The web platform http://playin-project.eu to give visibility to inclusive events and allow online management of volunteering. Each organisation posting an event is valued by gaining visibility and receiving the PlayIn certificate, thus joining the European network of committed actors.

An impact report was also written despite the impossibility of experimeting the tools in sports clubs due to the COVID-19 health crisis. Instead, the report refers to consultations with volunteers and sports organisations.
