Agenda 2030 and Advocacy

The 17 Goals of the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development are the reference coordinates of the Uisp Project Design Policies, which guide the association's choices in terms of international and national project design.

Sport for all is an extraordinary tool for social cohesion, inclusion, and well-being for all. Working through project implementation within a complex organization such as Uisp is built gradually and through successive experimentations, creating a project community. In this way, widespread knowledge processes are activated and skills are enhanced, in a virtuous path of deepening and exchanging experiences, but also procedures for evaluating and verifying methodologies, cross-cutting and group working methods.

This is a need that arises from the concept of design culture: it means, on the one hand, knowing how to relate and represent a point of reference for all the design actions activated at every level of the association, and, on the other hand, building relationships with the social fabric and institutions.

In recent years, the “EU...ISP” training course has been launched, which allows us to always be updated and in tune with the new European Plan for Sport 2024-2027, with the aim of providing tools to the Uisp regional committees so that they can interact with the Regions, to promote the full entry of sport into the ERDF-Economic Fund for Regional Development and ESF-European Social Fund programs. Co-programming and co-design requires a greater relationship with the entire third sector, greater inter-associative synergies and subsidiary actions that see sport as a piece of the new welfare.

This is the direction taken through the Advocacy action that Uisp also conducts through national projects (such as those financed by the MLPS ex. Art. 72 Legislative Decree No. 117 - 03/07/17, Call n. 2) and European ones.
