The Cultural Foundation PI - Domenico Chiesa and Panathlon International, will launch, at the beginning of the year, a new Photographic Competition addressed to young people of the age group 18-25 years, of every Country of the World.

The initiative born with the Sport Foundation of the Municipality of Reggio Emilia and with the collaboration of Palazzo Magnani Foundation has the aim to promote, through photography, the principles of Olympism and the aims of Panathlon International for the affirmation of the sport ideal and its moral and cultural values as instrument of formation and elevation of the person and of solidarity among men and peoples.

The 30 selected works will be the subject of an exhibition which will be staged as part of the events of the European Photography Festival. Cash prizes will be awarded to the first three winners. The "Public Prize" and the "Panathlon Club Prize" will also be awarded.

On 23 November 2021, the President's Committee met electronically to talk about the situation after the events of the 70th anniversary, the awarding of the competition organised by PI-Foundation and FICTS, the organisation of EPOSM, the meeting of the Lausanne Working Group, which we have already reported in the last newsletter. Furthermore, the results of the accessions to the international projects were discussed and in particular to the one for the subsidies to the Clubs that applied for them. The interested clubs will soon receive the relevant communication. The Fair Play project was discussed and interesting prospects opened up. The idea is to realise a Congress/Forum in the first months of 2022 to deepen and put into practice this interesting project. 

The situation of the clubs was also analysed, with particular attention to those in difficulty.

It was with great pleasure that the Secretary General then gave the news that the copies of the Magazine No. 3 have already arrived at the headquarters and are going to be sent.

On Thursday afternoon at 2.30 p.m. (Italian time) the International Board will meet, by videoconference, to finalise the items on the agenda which, for reasons of time, were not discussed at the last meeting. They will therefore discuss the "strategic plan", new collaboration agreements with International Bodies, changes to the Statute (already discussed and approved, but to be verified in the final analysis), the final document of the meeting of the District Presidents, the questionnaires for the clubs, the Expansion Commission, the next Assembly, Congress and Flambeau d'Or, the Pan-American Congress, the European Project "healthy lifestyle for all" and the reports of the International Board Members on the delegations assigned. A  very interesting and intense meeting.

On Monday 15 November 2021 took place the final event of the Erasmus -plus project EPOSM ("Evidence-based Prevention Of Sporting-related Match-fixing") coordinated by the University of Ghent (B).

Panathlon International, partner of the project (developed by the PI Representation in Belgium) organized with the collaboration of the PI Representation in Lausanne, the panel discussion moderated by Vangelis Alexandrakis (IOC) at the Maison du Sport followed by the Symposium at the University (UNIL) where data collected on different types of match-fixing collected in Belgium, Croatia, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland and the United Kingdom were presented. People connected to sport participated in an online survey that focused on current and former athletes, coaches, board members, referees and other people involved in different sports disciplines (including football, tennis, basketball, hockey, handball and cricket) who responded anonymously to questions about match-fixing. Very interesting data emerged that involved partners from all over Europe, representatives of international and sports associations (UEFA), as well as some Sports Ministers in a very interesting debate. The results of the research, reflections and conclusions will be published.

An initiative that allowed Panathlon International to underline the importance of its action in promoting ethical behaviour in youth education, also as a prevention against match-fixing.

             

At the office of Panathlon International at the Maison du Sport in Lausanne, on 16 November 2021, the Working Group of the PI Representation in Lausanne was constituted and held its first meeting.

The Group at the moment (as decided by the IB) is constituted by PI President Pierre Zappelli, PI Secretary General Simona Callo, the President of the District CH-FL Bernhard Segesser, the President of the Club Lausanne Philippe Cottet, the Secretary of the International Archery Federation (absent at this meeting) and the Secretary of the Representation, Melody Exhenry. IB Member Patrick Van Camphenout, the President of the District Belgium Paul Standard and Prof. Yves Vanden Aweele, former member of the PI Cultural Commission, participated in the meeting, as they were present in Lausanne for EPOSM.

They gave their experience on the activities carried out by the PI Representation in Belgium. Peter Wüthrich, member of the CH+ FL District Council, was also present. Among the various hypotheses discussed, the idea was to develop a tool, to be distributed to clubs, to facilitate their intervention in schools and spread our values among children/youth, thus contributing to their formative education.

It was then discussed on the possibility of studying a project that sees the establishment of an 'ethics commission' as also suggested in the final document of the meeting of the District Presidents Committee, which can become a point of reference not only for Panathlon International.

On these bases the next meeting has been programmed, during which it will be discussed also about the date to officially inaugurate the PI Representation in Lausanne.

SolidarSport: Une récolte de matériel sportif de qualité et le lancement d’une plateforme de dons initiés par le Panathlon Wallonie-Bruxelles pour aider la vie sportive à rebondir suite aux dramatiques intempéries

Les dégâts sont lourds de conséquences… Terrains sportifs dévastés, halls omnisport vidés, salles de fitness et agoraspaces endommagés suite aux inondations.

Tous ces lieux où se pratique le sport, où les parents se rencontrent, où des milliers d’enfants se rendent en stage, ... et qui chaque année participent à la transmission des valeurs positives, éducationnelles et sociétales du sport sont aujourd’hui impraticables.

La solidarité comme l’esprit d’équipe font partie des valeurs défendues par le Panathlon Wallonie-Bruxelles; en tant qu’activiste du Fair-Play, l’association s’engage au quotidien depuis 2003 avec son réseau de villes et communes, d’interfédérales, de fédérations et clubs sportifs membres pour réintégrer ces valeurs dans l’ADN de chaque pratiquant(e).
