In contemporary educational discourse, the promotion of coexistence and social integration among students is increasingly recognized as essential for fostering a positive learning environment and holistic development. This documental review synthesizes existing literature to explore the nexus between recreation, sports, and social cohesion within educational settings. Through a systematic analysis of peer-reviewed articles, reports, and educational policies, this review identifies key themes and theoretical frameworks that elucidate the role of recreational activities and sports in enhancing interpersonal relationships, fostering empathy, and cultivating a sense of community among students. The review also examines the impact of structured recreational programs on promoting inclusivity and addressing social disparities within educational institutions. Furthermore, this review highlights the varied methodologies and approaches employed in previous research, including quantitative studies measuring the outcomes of sports participation on social skills development, qualitative investigations into the lived experiences of students engaged in recreational activities, and comparative analyses of educational policies promoting coexistence through sports and recreation. By synthesizing and critically analyzing the literature, this review contributes to a deeper understanding of how recreational and sports programs can serve as effective tools for promoting coexistence and social harmony in educational environments. Practical implications for educators, policymakers, and researchers are discussed, emphasizing the importance of integrating purposeful recreational and sports activities into educational curricula to nurture inclusive communities and support students' overall well-being.
