SARI STATEMENT

For the last 26 years, SARI has been developing and delivering sports-based training programmes and activities connecting and building relationships across communities of diverse background, religion and circumstance. Last week’s events in Dublin city centre cast a dark shadow over the progress Ireland has made in recent decades on being an open and welcoming society. Those who try to undermine our achievements of inclusion and diversity must be challenged. We remain committed to using sport for social inclusion and will call out all those who promote hatred and violence. SARI will continue to harness the power of sport to embrace difference, celebrate diversity and promote social inclusion across Ireland.
