Empowerment and inclusion of disadvantaged adults through sport and art
Afrodita is a project funded by the European Union that offers an opportunity for disadvantaged adults from 4 EU countries (Italy, Greece, Spain and Germany) to emancipate themselves through artistic and sportive activities, improving their key competences required by the contemporary multicultural European society. Our priority is the inclusion and diversity in all fields of education, training, youth and sport.

Key target groups of Afrodita include:
- Disadvantaged adult learners: migrants and refugees, unemployed, NEETs and early school leavers, people from rural areas etc.
- Adult Education Providers
- Sports clubs
- Public Institutions
- Civil Society Organisations
Main activities
Project partners of this project will work on different aspects. The most relevant of these will be:

Expected results
As long-term benefits, we expect to:

- Equip adult educators with new tools, using sport and art approaches
- Support the social inclusion of vulnerable adults, providing quality tailored education
