Unfortunately, sports are also currently the place in Italy where it is difficult to come out and freely express one&#039;s sexual orientation or gender identity, regardless of the type of sport one participates in. Homophobia, transphobia, and all forms of hatred, which take shape at sporting events or in sports venues, must be combated, and it is time for sports clubs to take a visible step forward on these issues. The sport that enters our homes every week is a tool for spreading positive and educational messages and must also be effective in the fight for civil rights.<\/p>\n<p>On May 4, 2016, the 244th National Council of the Italian National Olympic Committee amended its statute to include among its commitments the fight against discrimination based on sexual orientation in sport. However, more than two years later, none of the CONI member sports federations have incorporated that provision into their statutes.<\/p>\n<p>We ask the various CONI federations to incorporate into their statutes their commitment to combating discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in sport.<\/p>\n<p><b>Sports Scholarships<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On July 3, 2019, Arcigay launched a sports scholarship coinciding with the beginning of the UNIVERSIADE in Naples \u2013 STOP HOMOPHOBIA IN SPORTS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arcigay, on the occasion of such an important event taking place in Naples from July 3 to 14, announced a scholarship of \u20ac1,000 for all graduating students, aiming at rewarding the best thesis on the following topics.
