Target audience: Country teams project managers, coordinators. Partners Applications of sport approaches for all / Change-Oriented Approaches St Andrews Refugees Services (StARS) Egypt STARS primarily works on refugee inclusion, child protection, education, legal and psychosocial support, health, and gender-based violence. In its projects, STARS focuses on strengthening community groups, with priority given to youth, women, and refugees. As part of its activities with community groups, STARS aims to organize sports activities that will foster positive change within the communities it supports. Etijah Egypt Etijah works on womens health and empowerment, civic engagement, development through sport, education, and advocacy, with a priority focus on youth, women, and refugees. Etijah considers sport a key operational priority for several reasons: it provides a space for expression, social interaction, healing, and development; it is a space marked by strong gender biases that can be transformed; and it is a space where social peace can be addressed. Through the use of these two complementary approaches, Etijah aims, via this project, to strengthen community mobilization among young people, reinforce social cohesion and peace, and promote inclusive sports practices. House of Peace (HOPe) Lebanon House of Peace works on social cohesion and peacebuilding, particularly addressing intercultural and interreligious tensions in Lebanon. The groups targeted by House of Peace are primarily refugees and women. Through this project, House of Peace aims to develop community mobilization and empowerment tools (such as sports activities) that could benefit social cohesion projects carried out with numerous community groups across the country. Caritas Jordan Jordan Caritas Jordan works on poverty reduction, health, support for migrants and refugees, and social development. Caritas Jordan works with all vulnerable populations, but particularly with young people, women, and refugees. Caritas Jordan aims to leverage sport as a vehicle for informal education for young people, especially young refugees, believing that inclusive sports practice strengthens autonomy and resilience and encourages personal transformation, particularly with the goal of social peace. Palestinian Amputee Football Association (PAFA) Gaza Strip PAFA works on disability in sport and on raising awareness about access to human rights for people with disabilities, particularly young people and women. PAFA has strong expertise in inclusive sports practice. This project allows PAFA to acquire new tools and a framework for experimentation to strengthen its vision of social transformation and its applications with the young people it supports. FSGT France The Workers Sports and Gymnastics Federation has a proven track record of social transformation through sport in Palestine, as well as expertise in training and skills development. It is a fundamental right for everyone to play, learn, and progress through sport. From a pedagogical point of view: put in place forms of organization so that access to the game is fair for everyone and is not monopolized by the best or the most dynamic. In terms of content: so that the activity truly brings about transformations and is not limited to the repetition of mechanized, stereotyped gestures, detached from their context. On the political, sporting and educational level, to ensure that the most disadvantaged have access to sports: by asking questions about the access of women, people with disabilities and refugees to sporting culture, the presence of this cultural resource in disadvantaged neighborhoods, and the right to socialization and education through sport for children and people with disabilities.
