Project Proposal:
The main objective of this initiative, which lasts for five weeks, is to develop actions to promote social inclusion, gender equity and non-violence through sport, activities, awareness and mobilization on issues such as human rights and the importance of democratizing the access to physical activity - a right enshrined in the Brazilian Constitution, but that sometimes is not respected.
‘Peace Me the Ball Project’ unites sport and education as an instrument of valorization of young people, and it will have applications far beyond Brazil. We can learn a lot and share those experiences. The project, still in the initial phase, uses sport as a tool for social transformation. This project has a beginning and has an end. However, after the training, it is an institution, which is empowered with the knowledge necessary to tread their own paths.
