Lviv summer with a street coach
Start date: Aug 1, 2013,
„Lviv summer with a street coach” is a Spanish-Ukrainian group EVS short-term project implemented by the A J Intercambia(Malaga, Spain) and Center for Educational Initiatives (Lviv, Ukraine) with the support of municipality of Lviv city and other actors. In the frames of the project 12 Spanish EVS volunteers will spend 2 months in Lviv (01.08.-30.09.2013) running sport and leisure activities for local children and youth, esp. for those socially disadvantaged from suburban areas. Together with local volunteers they will provide street and park animation, street soccer tournaments and similar activities and promote the idea of a common Europe through that. The main aim of the project is to offer pupils who can't spend their holidays outside of the city a valuable, interesting, active, healthy and safe way of spending their free time, while preventing them from falling into addiction or crime. Such a model programme has been successfully implemented for few years in Poland and our ambition is to transfer best practice and tools from it to Lviv city where it can also serve the local society. Teams of volunteers will also provide documentation of the event and make interviews with local youth and adults about healthy style of life and outside sport activities in Ukraine. The outcome of the project will be a publication and an internet site describing the idea and principles of the programme, as well as summarizing different methods which can be used by a coach during the activities.
