Goals and contents

The academic exchange between the TU Dortmund University and the Università degli Studi di Torino (University of Turin) aims to describe, compare and question the goals, measures, club-internal and -external framework conditions and the organization of sports offers for refugees in Italy and Germany. For this purpose, a project seminar and a three-day conference will be organized in both countries. The (sports) sociological perspective (alongside theoretical approaches from sports management and sports policy) will guide the discussions. Scholars, students and experts will participate in the events.
