Sports as a community builder

Sports coordinators from IACC's Community Centers from all across Israel traveled this week to Barcelona- the capital of world soccer. The delegation's purpose was to deepen the knowledge regarding the significance of sport and sportive-values in the framework of communal work, as part of IACC's "community building" mission.
Shai Reichener, Director of IACC's Economic Development Unit and head of the delegation: "We at the IACC see sports as significant means and an integral part of our national community building mission; the sports coordinators in this delegation were chosen as ambassadors and communal leaders of this perception."
The visit included a tour to the Barcelona Olympic Village and its facilities, as well as a visit to Community Centers in Barcelona, Jewish schools and organizations.
