Kultūros ir sporto veiklos plėtra kaimiškose bendruomenėse

LTStraipsnyje analizuojamos kultūros ir sporto veiklos plėtros problemos kaimiškose bendruomenėse. Dideliuose kaimuose bei mažuose kaimeliuose, nežiūrint turistu lankomumo, kultūrinis gyvenimas apmiręs, žmonių iniciatyvumas menkas nes miestų trauka itin didelė. Daugelis etnografinių kaimų gyventojų nesuvokia, kad jie gyvena reikšmingoje valstybei vietovėje. Jaunesnioji karta gėdijasi vietinių tradicijų, folkloro. Neaukšto lygio estetinis lavinimas (tiek muzikos, tiek dailės, dizaino, architektūros), menkos meniškų švenčių organizavimo galimybės jaunesniosios kartos gyventojus verčia žemiausio lygio miesčioniškosios kultūros vartotojais.

ENThe relevance of the research: Employees of Lithuanian rural culture centers - a group uniting almost three thousand people, invited to make sense of rural people’s leisure time, to create conditions for the development of amateurism in small villages. 882 country cultural centers in villages, towns and cities are institutions of universal use or specific activities. Their work varies, depending on what traditions have formed, the ambitions of the district or eldership that local cultural and sports departments seek. You will not find a cultural center where they would not sing, dance, play, perform, or celebrate. Also, exhibitions are regularly opened. Obviously, more intensive activity takes place in metropolitan areas, district centers, and in resorts during the summer. As here there is more space, more culture and more communities. Village and town culture institutions that are constantly communicating with schools, libraries, religious communities, neighborhoods, and sports clubs are also gaining significant results. However, it is appropriate to move to specific data from the theoretical point of view. Those members of rural communities who go in for sport individually face health supervision problems. Inadequate attention is paid to the development of personal responsibility for one’s health and the promotion of a healthy life: proper nutrition, active rest, less health-hazardous environment, abandoning harmful habits and etc. in an environment contrary to life in the countryside. It is important to develop a physically active and healthy society, consciously aware of the importance of a healthy lifestyle, to create a favorable environment for leisure time and sport and for the improvement of health of rural population, moreover, to increase the development of physical education and sports services in rural districts of Lithuania, to increase the quality of sports services, giving rural residents wider opportunities to meet their needs.The problem of the research: the lack of cultural and sporting services in rural communities. The analysis of the problem is based on scientific data of Aleksandravičius and Žukovskis (2011), Baršauskienė, Leliūgienė (2014), Kroeber A., Kluckhohn (1952), Nephi (2007, 2008), Pauliko, Adomonio (2003), Putnam (2001) , documents regulating the activities of rural communities. Methodology of the research: In order to achieve the goal, the analysis and synthesis of scientific literature, legal documents and other information sources and statistical data are used. The aim of the research: to reveal the factors of cultural and sports development in rural communities. Research objectives: to describe the development of cultural and sports services in the context of rural communities‘ activities; to identify the most significant factors in the development of cultural and sporting services in rural communities. Conclusion. Activities carried out by organizations of rural communities include a wide range of community needs, including the organization of cultural and sporting events, improvement of environmental management assistance, and others. As the main problems of rural community activities, the poor condition of rural social infrastructure objects are mentioned, therefore the process of establishment of community centers for the establishment of universal multifunctional centers is one of the significant tools for the development of rural communities and thus the development of cultural and sports activities.
