“…Such programmes have had good results in, among other factors, active learning, self-esteem and physical and mental health [4,5]. Sport and cultural activities are often included as part of leisure time, and, although they are often analyzed independently, a significant correlation has been established between sport and participation in cultural activities, which appear to be complementary activities [6]. Even though open-air activities are often related to sport practice in places that have not suffered great changes due to human activities, the natural environment also offers cultural settings which result from the interaction between humans and the physical world.…”

Factors such as social change and increasing urbanization processes in the early years of the 21st century have caused a reduction in the amount of time that children devote to leisure activities in the open-air, resulting in more sedentary lifestyles than children in previous decades. An education in healthy habits from early ages to increase children's physical and mental well-being together with their level of cultural knowledge contributes to the acquisition of a Leisure Culture that allows children to perceive the close environment as a scene for learning and enjoyment. It is thus be necessary for schools to foster pedagogical experiences, taking the physical and cultural environment as teaching resources. An innovation project is proposed which will be implemented with 25 university students from the School of Teacher Training and Education at the University of Oviedo (Oviedo, Spain). The project will consist of the proposal of educational itineraries through the city of Oviedo and Mount Naranco. As teachers-to-be, students must combine knowledge of the related areas and generate inter-disciplinary activities throughout the routes that will foster respect for the environment and leisure based on culture and physical activity, attitudes that they will transmit to their own students in the future.

“…In order to identify which variables have an effect on the attendance to live shows, in addition to the already existing bibliography (Zanola, 2010;Hallmann et al, 2017;Lenguina & Miles, 2017;Borowiecki & Marvao, 2017), 15 of the most outstanding flamenco and the Spanish music industry personalities have been interviewed (Arboleda & Gonzalez, 2016;Hernando & Campo, 2017;Heredia-Carroza, Palma & Aguado, Forthcoming).…”

This article aims to determine which variables have effect on the attendance frequency to live flamenco shows. Firstly we have done interviews to flamenco and music industry experts to achieve new-fangled variables in our analysis. Secondly, these variables were valued by flamenco consumers through surveys. Afterwards, with these data, we used a methodology based on different econometric models to obtain the coefficients of the variables. The results show how variables such as educational level, the way the music is listened or the valuation of the performer, amongst others, have an influence on the attendance frequency to flamenco live shows. The article contributes to the scarce empirical literature relating attendance frequency determinants to traditional popular genres by adding never studied before variables, focusing on the flamenco case.

“…Participation in sport and involvement in culture are usually studied as separate domains, even though these activities dominate leisure time for most young people and are often interrelated in terms of government bodies and administration (cf. Hallmann et al 2017;Long and Bianchini 2018;Trondman and Lund 2008). Accordingly, these domains of leisure activity could benefit from being explored in relation to one another (Miles and Sullivan 2012).…”

“…However, the areas of sport and culture are seldom analysed jointly in research, with some notable exceptions (Hallmann et al 2017;Long and Bianchini 2018;Miles and Sullivan 2012;Norberg 2008;Trondman and Lund 2008). There is a need for greater knowledge on the relationship between sport and culture in terms of policy, as policy-makers pay increasing attention to their use in facilitating social policy objectives, particularly in terms of combatting social exclusion in young people (Belfiore 2002;Coalter 2007;Preston 2011;Rimmer 2009).…”

Mobilising non-participant youth: using sport and culture in local government policy to target social exclusion

The role of sport and cultural practices in policy initiatives tends to be assessed in both cases in terms of their assumed social benefits. However, the areas of sport and culture are often understood separately in research. Through an analysis of interviews with key local policymakers and civil servants in two Swedish municipalities, the aim of this article is to explore how sport and culture are formed as means to promote social policy objectives regarding young people. In addition, we reflect on the political significance of this in relation to the development of local policy. The analysis demonstrates how a discourse of urban segregation and unequal opportunities underpins actions to mobilise non-participant and at-risk youth. This is achieved by establishing centres for sport and culture, and by enabling an educational approach which focuses on participation, empowerment and good citizenship. Reasons for mobilising practices involving culture and sport overlap, though each area of policy appears to be differently underpinned by discourses of enlightenment and conformity. Differences in emphasis between the discourses on sport and culture are discussed in relation to scientific discourse on the social utility of each policy area.
