Multiplicity of practices, diversity and inclusion
Who is more skilled? A soccer star, a great volleyball player, a street juggler or a dancer? No doubt all of them are skilled, each in his own talent. But our point of view is influenced by the context, by the value that the market sets to that ability, by the lens that the media adjusts.
We are witnesses - in many passive cases - of the globalization of sport that overvalues aspects that are linked to the commercialization and despises the skills that claim the multiplicity of bodily practices.
The group of Physical Education teachers has a lot to contribute in defense of local cultures, diversity, inclusion, gamification and the environment. The road is very arduous and complex and it is the school environment where this challenging game is played.
