Alone in the asylum jungle
Unaccompanied minor asylum seekers in Switzerland: Situation, challenges and solutions
Sport als Integrationsquelle
Maturarbeit of Jonathan Wyler
"Durch die Teilnahme am Fussballsport können Migrant*innen vieles erlernen, was ihnen im späteren Verlauf ihres Lebens helfen wird und sie auch in die schweizerische Gesellschaft integriert."
Sportaktivität von zwangsvertriebenen Frauen in der Schweiz – Welche Faktoren die sportliche Aktivität von geflüchteten Frauen beeinflussen
«Geflüchtete Frauen sehen sich oft mit sprachlichen, wie auch kulturellen Barrieren konfrontiert.»
Integration durch Sport
«Wir sollten nicht vergessen das auch Flüchtlinge die gleichen Bedürfnisse, Rechte und Pflichten haben wie jeder Mensch.»
Sport verbindet
«Sport ist sehr niederschwellig und die Integration kann dort passieren, wo sich Leute von verschiedenen Kulturen kennenlernen können.»
My family: «SPORTEGRATION»
«SPORTEGRATION ist für mich wie mein Zuhause und die Familie, die den Verein gegründet hat, sind für mich wie meine Familie. Alle Leute, vor allem die Schweizer*innen, sind sehr offen und hilfsbereit, denn wenn ich oder jemand von den Teilnehmer*innen irgendeine Frage von der Schule, Stellen und Wohnungssuche oder bei einem Brief Probleme haben, sind sie immer bereit, uns zu unterstützen.» Desbele is a long-term SPORTEGRATION participant. He wrote his advanced thesis about the association and his personal relationship to SPORTEGRATION.
Integration through sport
«That there are people who do not have the opportunity to be active sportively like me shocked me. Especially because sport has given me so much. I saw great potential in the integration of refugees through sport.»
Integration through sport
«SPORTEGRATION is an association from Zürich which was founded in 2016 by two lawyers from Zurich - Piera Cerny and Annina Largo - together with their husbands. Due to the wave of refugees in 2016 and the high prices of gyms they decided to contribute to their social integration. Their motivation was the love for sport.»
INTEGRATION THROUGH SPORT - on the basis of an organized football tournament with young refugees
«On the pitch someone's origin doesn't matter. You find friends, build team spirit and lose and win together.» As part of his matura thesis Elio organized a football tournament with SPORTEGRATION participants.
Integration through sport
«In summary the three methods - interviews, survey and football tournament - impressively and thoroughly proved that sport can play an important role in the integration of a refugee. The advantages of sportive activtiy, especially together with Swiss people, are obvious.»
The association SPORTEGRATION
«The refugee crisis is no longer omnipresent in the media but is still an important topic of current affairs. How are these people who were forced to leave their home and are now trying to settle down in a foreign environment? How are these people supported here in Switzerland?»
PLAYFUL INTEGRATION THROUGH SPORT
In 2018 Djibril and Robin organized a football tournament with young natives and SPORTEGRATION participants and made a short film about their project.
INTEGRATION THROUGH SPORT
«I had the opportunity to visit a training session myself when, on the 17th August 2017 when the association celebrated its one-year anniversary, I made my way to the Silo Löwenbräu. I was excited, couldn't really imagine how it would be.»
