This project will work with at-risk children and youth in the Latgale-Utena cross-border area and will use street sports culture to preven young people from involvement in risky, criminal or immoral activities, as well as enabling their return to school and integration into society as a whole. Project activities will include capacity-building for professionals (20 persons from the participating organisations) working with the at-risk children and teenagers to raise their competence in working with this specific target group, as well as to create a network for exchange of information and best practice. A methodological manual will be elaborated outlining the approach and methods on how to use sports for social inclusion of at-risk teenagers, on how to better motivate and involve them in the sports activities. Outdoor sports infrastructure will be improved in 13 participating municipalities: Aglona, Balvi, Daugavpils municipality, Daugavpils, Krāslava, Preiļi, Rēzekne, Rēzekne municipality, Riebiņi, Viļaka and Viļāni in Latgale, and Visaginas and Ignalina in Utena County. During the project training and coaching for a selected group of at-risk teenagers at each of 13 project locations will be done and public street sports activities in each participating municipality will be organized including two Ghetto games tournaments (in Visaginas and Daugavpils) during the summer periods for 1500 at-risk teenagers.
