“Stop racism, not the game”: a commitment to counter racism in sport

Sport cannot be considered an island separate from the social context. This was the premise from which all the speakers started during the conference “Stop Racism, Not the Game,” held last Friday, Oct. 11, as part of the Sabir Festival.
Numerous voices were heard during the two panels: not only representatives of the associations involved in the Monitora project, but also personalities such as Omar Daffe of Lega Serie A, Matteo Tracchi of ECRI, Mattia Peradotto director of UNAR, volleyball player Luca Vettori and Altreconomia journalist Arianna Scarnecchia, authors of the podcast “Fuori dai giochi-Gli spazi preclusi dello sport” (“Out of the Games-The Foreclosed Spaces of Sports.”)
Stop racism, not the game – The International conference

We would like to invite you to take part in the international conference ‘Stop racism, not the game’ on 11th October 2024 at 11 a.m. within the framework of the Sabir Festival. The conference will take place at the Città dell’Altreconomia (largo Dino Frisullo, snc, Rome), in the Biagetti Conference Room.
Ready, set, go! The campaign “Stop racism, not the Game!”

Stop Racism, not the Game!, aims to encourage people to report, monitor and take effective action against racism. Video testimonials, dissemination posts and three video challenges on the very three issues mentioned above will characterise the first part of the campaign that will accompany the period of the Olympics.
