More about Sports for Peace
Sports has been a powerful tool to help access youth, understand their demands and concerns and help ANERA come up with programs that are tailored for their needs. Beyond all the achievements, this project proved that Sports is not only a powerful mean for uniting parties, easing the tension and fostering integration, but also an important tool to place children and youths in a safer and healthier environment and drift them away from following the wrong path and engage in violent and intolerant conduct.
