    Sport Based Solutions Guidance: A New Article In The Library Section

    Among our final products, ourLead Expert provided us and the interested parties with a Sport Based Solutions Guidance to orient us in the world of sport in urban spaces. Over the past two decades, sport has become a central component of contemporary urban policy due to its proven impact on public health, social cohesion, and environmental resilience. International frameworks, including those promoted by global and European institutions, emphasise that active living must be integrated into urban planning, mobility systems, education, and public space design. Sport is no longer seen as a marginal leisure activity, but as a structural tool capable of shaping healthier and more inclusive cities.
