For the first time in Italy, all data on violence and abuse in sports.
Under the coordination of Mike Hartill, a professor at Edge Hill University, with operational support from our Scientific Committee, the assistance of our Partners (Vero Volley Consortium, Terre des Hommes, and the Candido Cannavo’ Foundation), and crucial support from the Italian government, we now have scientific data, indisputable, albeit painful: four out of ten boys or girls have experienced a form of violence or abuse in their early sports careers. Here you can find all the comprehensive documentation, from the ethical report to the biographies of the members of the scientific committee, methodologies, the final report, and over 60 charts from the qualitative-quantitative analysis conducted by Nielsen on a sample of approximately 1,500 respondents. The statistical survey was conducted between February and March 2023.
