Both historical and sporting, this exhibition explores the link between sport and the social and workers' movement in the 20th century, as well as the role of trade unions, associations and political parties in making sport accessible to the general public. Conceived by the Centre d'histoire sociale des mondes contemporains and the Humatèque Condorcet, the exhibition will travel across France in the run-up to the Games, as part of theCultural Olympiad.

You'll discover dozens of biographies of sports activists who have made it possible for everyone to enjoy a sporting activity today!
