Introducing our initiative is not only about increasing productivity and employment. It is about enabling people to have a broad sense of well-being and opportunities to express and make choices about their lives.
Sports can be a way out of poverty for youth from disadvantaged communities, being poor is being vulnerable to crime and violence, to a lack of justice and access to services. Being poor means the inability to negotiate, bargain, and get paid.
Poverty, in a nutshell, is a kind of decline in social status. So that`s why social solidarity and cultural identity are so relevant to sports and social development. Unless we take sports for development seriously, the fight against the many faces of poverty will remain elusive therefore we will strive to increase access and opportunities for all disadvantaged communities in South Africa.
