Sport is a powerful tool to prepare and empower youth for the future. Teamwork, fair play, and peaceful conflict resolution become part of an individual’s personality when one not only hears about it in a classroom but experiences it on the field of play. Using sport as a tool to promote positive social change and convey life skills including communication, teamwork, and leadership is referred to as the Sport for Development (S4D) approach.
Sport is an attractive development approach that serves as a platform to discuss sensitive topics. Which topics can be addressed through S4D? Who plans and conducts S4D activities? What do these activities look like? These are some of the questions we will answer together during this course.
This course provides basic knowledge about the S4D approach by showing you the skills you need to be an S4D facilitator, how to structure an S4D session, and what topics you can address through the S4D approach.
