The infrastructure of the project is based on the local experience of its partner organizations and their cooperation. Addressing the problem of participation of disadvantaged groups, the project has set targets for these groups and the organizations working with them. The analyzes of the project were made together with young people with disabilities and students with educational difficulties in their target groups. The traditional sports and games (TSG) field, which includes common values and cultural heritage, will be used effectively in the project processes to achieve the goals. The main objectives of the project; developing, disseminating and sustaining traditional sports and games by creating structures specific to the field and a local coaching system; ensuring the participation of disadvantaged groups in TSG, increasing their social inclusion and developing healthy life habits, increasing the competencies and capacities of local organizations and individuals working in the field of TSG, to increase awareness of social and cultural diversity among local communities and the international community by using the TSG's ties with cultural heritage and common values, to develop solidarity in the field of combating discrimination and exclusion. Throughout the project cycle, activity groups will be implemented for target groups that complement each other and provide links between the local dimension and the international dimension. Sustainable, realistic and inclusive activities planned within the scope of local and international management strategy have been planned. The project, which deals with participation in physical activity with all its environmental conditions, will reach a whole with the fields of local and international synergy, capacity development, training module development specific to target groups and European awareness.
