Le sport dans les quartiers

The mediating effects of family on sport in international development contexts

“…The use of sport to achieve social outcomes is widespread, both in Western contexts and in international development ones. In ‘Western’ societies sport is employed to further a variety of equity, diversity and inclusion agendas, such as the integration of recent immigrant groups (Gasparini and Vieille-Marchiset, 2008; Krouwel et al, 2006) and the engagement of disaffected youth (Sandford et al, 2006; Spaaij, 2009). In the less affluent countries of the Majority World, it is harnessed in support of the Millennium Development Goals, contributing to global efforts to raise education levels and reduce exposure to health risks in some of the poorest communities in the world (e.g.…”

The sports park and urban promenade in the ‘quais de Bordeaux’: An example of sports and recreation in urban planning

Secondly, the sports park as a sequence inside the whole promenade reinforces the idea that it is more than a regulated space with organized sporting and recreational activities (Gasparini & Marchiset, 2008). Above all, it is a public place accessible to all (Lévy, 2011), with a high risk of encounters (Rieucau, 2012).…”

Moreover, the new informal sporting and recreational practices developed at the heart of urban public spaces (parks, squares, riverbanks and seashores, etc.)…”

Des patient·e·s face aux actions de promotion de la santé par les activités physiques : pluralité des formes de réception

“…Des dispositions 6 à la pratique d'activités physiques expliquent sans doute, dans une certaine mesure, l'expression d'un accord et d'une prise en compte des recommandations en termes de pratique d'activité physique. Toutefois, la majorité des personnes concernées par les dispositifs de prescription médicale d'activité physique étudiées ici sont atteintes de pathologie chronique -parfois depuis de nombreuses années -et résident essentiellement dans des quartiers populaires où le taux de pratique sportive est moindre (Gasparini, Vieille Marchiset, 2008). Cette spécificité est d'autant plus importante que les résistances à des formes d'imposition normative y sont plus accentuées (Thin, 2005 ; Constance et Peretti-Watel, 2010).…”
