International Sport for Development and Peace

International Sport for Development and Peace (SDP) uses sports as a tool to promote social change, inclusivity, and conflict resolution. It leverages the universal appeal of sports to foster community building, improve health, empower marginalized groups, and encourage cooperation across cultures. By integrating sports programs into development initiatives, SDP aims to address social issues like inequality, discrimination, and violence, helping communities grow stronger and more resilient. Essentially, it harnesses the positive values of sports—teamwork, discipline, fair play—to contribute to sustainable peace and social progress worldwide.
