EUROPEAN POLICIES: SPORT, INCLUSIVE EDUCATION AND THE INTEGRATED SYSTEM. HOW TO RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC CRISIS1

European policies highlight the challenges Covid-19 has posed to both the sporting world and to physical activity and well-being, including for marginalized or vulnerable groups. One of the strategies adopted to mitigate the impact of Covid-19 on the sport education sector, requires an integrated system which aims to develop the culture of sport in particular among students with disabilities. This model in turn is structured around the following dimensions: Sporting federations and organizations; Professional sport ecosystem; Supporting physical activity; Research and policy guidance; Promoting positive educative and social attitudes and behavior. This paper intends to contribute to a systematic reflection imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic in relation to the main educational policies just mentioned, and in particular around the need to review the inclusive and sustainable dimension of sport in the school curriculum, especially for students with disabilities.
