Learn how CARE is using sport as a tool for social change
Join CARE, the international humanitarian organization, for a special videoconference featuring Dr. Auma Obama, Technical Advisor for CARE's Sport for Social Change Initiative. Dr. Obama will lead a discussion on how CARE is empowering girls, particularly in Africa, by using sport as a tool for social change.
CARE's Sport for Social Change Initiative is a pioneering program that uses the convening power of sports as a vehicle to minimize the effects of poverty on marginalized youth and young adult populations. The strategic combination of sports and education not only means more young people are going to school, but they are also learning leadership skills that can open doors to a better way of life.
This program is in partnership with Global Nomads Group. This program is most suitable for grades 7-8; 9-12.
