ENSE FORUM

The 17th ENSE Forum will take place at the Sports University of Tirana in Tirana, Albania, on November 1st and 2nd, 2024, under the theme Bridging Borders through Sport Education: The Euro-Balkan-Med Perspective. The Sports University of Tirana, an esteemed institution and ENSE member, will host this significant event.

This year’s Forum will serve as a platform for dialogue, focusing on the role of sport in fostering unity and addressing sociocultural challenges from a Euro-Balkan-Med perspective. The discussions will emphasize sport's potential in promoting inclusivity, integration, and a more connected society.

A key feature of the Forum will be the parallel sessions, where presenters will have 15 minutes to showcase their research or projects. We encourage experienced academics, practitioners, and students to submit their abstracts for consideration.

Those interested in presenting can submit their abstracts via email to enseconference2024@ust.edu.al. Submissions are open until October 4, 2024, and all abstracts will be reviewed by the Conference’s Scientific Committee. Accepted abstracts will be included in a special issue of the Journal of Physical Activity and Sports (JPAS).

During the submission process, authors are required to indicate one of the following disciplinary fields:

  • Sport Education for Social Inclusion, Integration, and Gender Equality
  • Sport Education for Human Rights, Peace, and Sport Diplomacy
  • Sport Education for Sustainable Development
  • Sport Education in Dual-Career
  • Sport Education and Innovation in Sport Coaches' and PE Teachers' Education
