More about Youth against Election violence
Our project uses football as a sports discipline for social change. We identify and select Youth teams from the different division s of Kampala district and engage them in a football competition that is accompanied with the message of non violence through a short civic educative talk. We have exchange visits for the teams during the competition (home and away) so as to exchange ideas.
The use of soccer for a non violent election campaign is our focus because big percentages of youth meet / unite through sports. Thus through the engagements, it is easy for one to understand and relate with fellow youth upon election violence issues.
