Reminder: TS Marathon

[Infopoint]

This is just to remind those of you who have already registered for the 
Trieste Marathon which will take place on Sunday, 7 May

http://www.triestemarathon.it/

and who wish to be part of the group from the ICTP community who will 
participate together with the group of refugees/migrants who are 
presently housed at CARA, Gradisca, to confirm your participation to the 
Infopoint. The registration date has been extended until 29 April.

It is expected that of the order of 5 people will participate from CARA.

This initiative is in accordance with the message from the 
Director-General of UNESCO on the occasion of the International Day of 
Sport for Development and Peace, 6 April 2017:

"Sport is a passion shared by women and men across the world. It is a 
force for physical well-being and social empowerment. It is an engine 
for equality, especially gender equality, for including everyone, 
especially the most disadvantaged. There is no more powerful platform 
than sport to nurture the values we all share – solidarity, 
responsibility, respect, honesty, teamwork, equality motivation and 
self-esteem… Sport is a way to include everyone, including refugees and 
migrants, to fight against stereotypes, to strengthen the foundations 
for peace in healthy societies".
