Sport for the protection of children's rights - Impact analysis on the activity of Inter Campus as a promoter of dialogue and development, Padova, 1 December 2021

Program

Seminar presenting the research report "An Assist to the Rights of Children and Girls. The Inter Campus project and representations of stakeholders", conducted by the Human Rights Center "Antonio Papisca" based on an agreement with Inter Campus. Inter Campus, since 1997, has been promoting social interventions and long-term cooperation in 30 countries around the world with the support of 300 local operators, using the game of soccer as an educational tool to restore the Right to Play to girls and boys, between 6 and 13 years of age, who are deprived of it. The research analyzed the activities promoted by Inter Campus in six contexts-countries among those in which it currently operates-Angola, Bosnia, Cambodia, Colombia, Mexico, and Israel-Palestine. The general objectives were, on the one hand, to assess whether and to what extent the promotion of rights was actually introjected by the actors responsible for project implementation; on the other hand, to detect what were the evaluations of the "beneficiaries" about the expected and achieved outcomes in terms of education and well-being.
