SPORT DANS LA VILLE

Founded in 1998, Sport dans la Ville is the leading organization in France promoting social integration through sports. Its mission is to contribute to equal opportunities for young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods.

All the programs implemented by the organization help remove the obstacles faced by the 12,000 young people it supports: accessing regular sports activities, promoting social and professional integration, supporting entrepreneurial talents in neighborhoods, and contributing to the empowerment of young girls.

Sport dans la Ville works within priority neighborhoods to (re)ignite the desire for sports from a young age (fields are accessible from 6 years old), strengthen self-confidence, contribute to the development and empowerment of young girls through long-term support, up to professional integration.

Sport dans la Ville works with women to:

• Encourage women's participation in sports (dedicated sessions and sports outings)
• Boost girls' self-confidence and leadership (workshops on personal development and self-esteem, stays)
• Promote girls' guidance and professional integration (meeting inspiring women, discovering professions, assistance with apprenticeships, internships, employment, etc.)
• Promote diversity and equal opportunities for girls and those around them
• Support young women entrepreneurs (more than 50% of the beneficiaries supported by the Entrepreneurs dans la Ville program are women)
