Sport can provide an effective medium for the development of actions that will contribute to the social organisation of the communities at risk, especially due to the impact it causes through its connection with health and education.
“Art and sport have the powers to change the world, the power to inspire, the power to unite people in a way that little else can. Art and sport speak to people in a language they understand. Art and sport can create hope where there was once only despair. They are instruments for peace, even more powerful than governments.”
Nelson Mandela
