Обзорная статья
Аннотация: ЮНЕСКО признает важность традиционных видов спорта и игр для сохранения их культурных ценностей и их способности расширять участие в физической активности и спорте на протяжении почти двух десятилетий. Деятельность ЮНЕСКО в области сохранения традиционных видов спорта и игр (TSG) сосредоточена на научных исследованиях, создании онлайн-энциклопедии, разработке руководящих принципов и создании международной платформы с участием соответствующих заинтересованных сторон. До настоящего времени ЮНЕСКО успешно провела четыре коллективных консультативных совещания, в которых приняли участие министры, правительственные должностные лица, представители постоянных делегаций ЮНЕСКО, эксперты и многие другие заинтересованные стороны. Недавно прошла четвертая коллективная консультация 2018, которая состоялась в Стамбуле, где собралось более 82 участников из 40 стран, включая министров, экспертов с целью дальнейшего развития программы по охране TSG при ЮНЕСКО. Мы искренне надеемся, что по мере того, как все больше и больше государств-членов станут частью группы друзей TSG, поддержка проекта приведет к продвижению и развитию традиционных видов спорта и игр во всех ваших странах и поможет расширить глобальную сеть и ее работу, в том числе ЮНЕСКО. Ключевые слова: народные виды спорта и игры, культурные ценности, физическая активность и спорт.
