The event is part of Coexistence Week, which promotes the culture of welcoming and acceptance in society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent years, there has been a great increase in the use of sport as a tool for social transformation. Many actors from different parts of society are using it to improve the social cohesion and coexistence of groups that are forced to live together in the same community due to different circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forced displacement: a growing phenomenon<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the case of forced displacement, a phenomenon that has increased in recent years due to the political and social conflicts proliferating around the world. People who are forced to flee their community of origin in search of asylum suddenly arrive in a new society where they encounter great cultural, language and social barriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy mid-2022, there were already 103 million forcibly displaced people around the world, of which approximately 50% are boys and girls for whom sport is essential\u201d, explained Edelmira Campos, head of UNHCR\u2019s Foreign Relations Department in Spain, during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Campos, UNHCR\u2019s strategy in the use of sport focuses on four fundamental lines around refugees: making them feel part of their host community by exercising a leadership role, getting athletes access to elite sport to create professional opportunities, giving a voice to this group in the media to get support in society and creating an international network with different sports-related actors and institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-opt-id=1957914665  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"635\" src=\"https:\/\/mlrs8jfvglcz.i.optimole.com\/cb:X94i.2946c\/w:1024\/h:635\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/community\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_20230516_180751_modif_web.jpg\" alt=\"On the left, Ra\u00fal Hern\u00e1ndez, researcher at the University of Barcelona and organiser of the seminar.

right?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIs sport a fundamental right that should be recognised internationally as a human right?\u201d This is the question that Karlos Castilla, coordinator of the Human Rights Institute of Catalonia, asked the attendees of the seminar. \u201cAnd if so, who should regulate this right? Should it be run by public bodies rather than by private organisations with particular interests?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Castilla, there is currently no international standard that considers the right to sport as a human right. Only some countries enjoy such recognition at the national level. The most universal document recognising one is the Olympic Charter of the International Olympic Committee, which serves as a benchmark for the international community, even though it lacks legal weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe absence of rights means that refugees cannot participate in certain leagues or sports activities due to lack of documentation or because those who regulate these areas are private agents such as federations, and not the state\u201d, Castilla said. \u201cTherefore, refugees and, more importantly, refugee children are discriminated against\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Access to sport for refugees at the university<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For refugees to have access to sport, many approaches have emerged from different areas of society. One of them is the university environment. Since 2015, the University of Barcelona (UB) has offered sports programmes aimed at this group. The COMMUNITY project currently holds weekly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ub.edu\/community\/socio-sports-meetings\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"3297\">Socio-Sports Meetings for refugees<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe interesting thing about this project is that it mixes local and refugee populations to promote coexistence between both communities, in addition to helping to improve their well-being\u201d, said Cati Jerez, coordinator of the UB\u2019s Support Programme for refugees and people from conflict zones, which is coordinated by Fundaci\u00f3 Solidaritat UB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Cati Jerez, the UB has been developing this methodology since 1993. It is based on cooperative motor-skill games instead of focusing on standard sports to avoid the rivalries typical of competitive sports such as football and basketball. This promotes the formation of positive bonds between the people who participate, who once again feel human and treated equally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Socio-Sports Meetings focus on three points: that the participants can meet people, have a good time and exercise\u201d, said Laura Tom\u00e1s, the social educational professional involved in the project. \u201cThis gradually and naturally gets people to open up emotionally, improve their social skills and their ability to assume responsibilities, skills that they can extrapolate to their daily lives\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"

to stay. Society must respond to the needs coming from this phenomenon to alleviate the social problems that intercultural clashes and social exclusion can produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the experts at the seminar, sport is unifying and harmonising force that can help to solve these problems, reducing social segregation and the racism and discrimination suffered by refugees. At the same time, it improves coexistence between them and their host community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, to achieve this, the host community must be involved in the change. In this sense, sport can be a strategic line to reach people willing to help this vulnerable group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, the appropriate use of sport can be a driving tool for change and social transformation that can unite society and create opportunities while healing people and giving them hope<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"
