Animation et culture sportive en Côte d’Ivoire : cas des compétitions sportives dans les établissements primaires et secondaires du district d’Abidjan

Abstract

Throughout this article we will point out the difficulties faced by sports culture promoters in Ivorian secondary schools. For this purpose, in addition to political institutions, key informants from four regional branches of the Ministry of education in Abidjan have contributed to the survey. For this study, we used a strategic and socio-historical approach based on the realities of sport culture in the Ivorian educational system. This analysis presents the reasons why the implementation of sports culture in schools has failed. It is chiefly due to sport policy and sport structures on one hand, and on the other hand to sport activities organized in schools. To sum up, all the parties involved in the implementation the culture of sports in the educational system are co-responsible for its failure.
