Out of the Box International  works further to enhance current cooperation in South East Europe region and actively supports the integration of all European countries in common European project.

At the end of May 2021, the last meeting of the project “More entrepreneurship in sport – more sport for all” was held in Palic, Serbia. We rounded up the whole project, talked about what went well and what challenges we faced and discussed how COVID-19 pandemic influenced not only the implementation of the project but also sport overall. As participants were already highly productive when it comes to the exploitation of this project’s results – a whole new idea came up. The idea emerged and a Cooperation partnership project under the Sport call of Erasmus+ 2021 was designed and finalized during the meeting.

The new project submitted by Best-seller is named “Rhythm is fit – digital workouts for all on Sportaction” and has the following aim: To enhance social inclusion of Roma through fitness, and dancing fitness in particular.

Based on Zumba fitness, the flow of the project activities will include combos of fun and fitness, designed for everybody and every body. As the mixture of rhythms from all around the world is confluent with the dancing traditions of participating countries, this kind of  intensive dance-fitness with multicultural approach will promote fitness and friendship, boosting self-esteem and autonomy of all participants, thus positioning health as the most crucial and basic value of every human being no matter how old they are.

The project will also enhance the impact of the project “Sport to promote change for LGBT”, implemented by the partner Association for progress, education and lobbying, that as its main result has a platform www.sportaction.eu where useful contents on social inclusion in sport can be found.

We will be further holding together and creating better and quality projects in the future, with innovative characters and for the sake of better use of talents in sport coming from different marginalized groups.

We will keep promoting different business models for the sustainability of sporting associations and building their capacities together.

Why Out of the Box International

The seemingly ever-lasting depression of European economies has shaken the very foundations of many European societies. The shear rate of unemployment in Europe and the omnipresent environmental crisis coupled with the often frustratingly slow process of decision making in the EU, are calling for civil society actors to step in and fill the void.

In the aftermath of the 2008. economic crisis, the apprehension of falling under the spell of apathy of economic depression across the continent has not been easy to shake off. However, pinpointing the culprits for the current state of affairs on any particular EU decision maker is not the answer. Nonetheless, the fact remains that the current approach to the economic and environmental crisis hasn’t yet shown the affected citizens the light at the end of the tunnel.

As representatives of the civil society we feel the need to make our voice heard in the midst of the current debate on economic crisis. Being a social enterprise we offer new and feasible ideas in education and community work, creative cross-sectorial cooperation among different actors and strong networking coalitions to turn these dire economic challenges into possibilities through social entrepreneurship initiatives which aim at benefiting wide range of citizens, particularly vulnerable groups and those affected by the economic crisis.

Social entrepreneurship is a simple concept that has been put into practice by civil society actors for the benefit of a specific social group or people, and this is precisely what we want: to create projects and initiatives with fresh ideas in different policies, educational programs or tools, support businesses, empower cultural initiatives and offer different solutions to individuals, corporate bodies, everybody who believe that we can have more Creative, Innovative and Cohesive Europe.
