Foreword
In the mid-I970s the Member States of UNESCO'and the non-governmental organizations
began co be concerned by the lack of standards and institutions for physical education
and
sport at intergovernmental level. By putting this right they wanted to promote
mass
participation in sport, the role of physical education and
sport in the global
education system, the links between physical education and
sport and the needs of individuals and society, the role and
status of the personnel concerned, equipment and materials,
research and evaluation, documentation, the media. national
institutions and international co-operation.
The International Charter of Physical Education and Sport, the
text
of which is set out below, was thus drawn
up by experts, then
adopted by the General Conference at its twentieth session in
1-9-7 81_,
Developments over the next decade led the
General Conference at its twenty-sixth session, in 1991.
to add a new Article 7
to the Charter "Protection of the ethical and moral values of physical
education and sport must be a constant concern for aiV. This
new
edition of the Charer has been prepared so as to include that
amendment.
The Charter is intended not only for those who draw
up curricula for phrsical
education and sport at national and international levels, for researchers, for those who train
the personnel concerned (trainers, doctors, psychologists, etc.), for journalists and of
course
for the sportsmen and sportswomen concerned, both
amateurs and professionals, but also for
the much wider public of spectators and all those who for
one.reason or another Ake an
interest in sport and physical education.
As this document is intended for a very wide range of readers we wanted it
to be as
accessible and visuallv attractive as possible, which is why
we asked Ms Shioun Michiko
Nakasato (Japan), the artist, to contribute hcr imaginative illustrations, for which
we should
like to thank her.
