Sažetak
The issue of social cohesion is indivisibly linked to the problems of integration and discrimination, particularly by race, national, regional, ethnic or any other cultural diversity. In this presentation I will show preliminary results from a four-year scientific project “Sport, discrimination and integration. Sport as a vehicle of social inclusion and participation”. Different practices of qualitative and quantitative methodology are used within this project, with emphasis on discursive analysis, participant observation, ethnographic recording, free and semi-structured interviews. Individuals from associations and institutions involved in sporting activities will be main interviewees in first part of a project, while later stages of the research will include interviews with children with disabilities and their parents. Presented will be results from several field trips that were carried out by the methods of qualitative research, ie. interviews with stakeholders involved in various stages of sports integration, mostly involved in the work of associations, NGOs and institutions concerned with the provision of equal opportunities for children with various developmental disabilities. Integration opportunities offer children with disabilities the chance to compete in sports with an aim of reaping all benefits of it. Although integration is a big and necessary step for enabling people with disabilities to enjoy sports, the next step is inclusion – producing local models that connect children with disabilities with their peers through sports. One of the expected aims of the project is the contribution to models of improvements of inclusion, using sport as a vehicle of social cohesion.
