Sport For Life at the SDG to Youth Festival in Praia

SportImpact participated in the SDG to Youth Festival, organized by AIESEC Cabo Verde on April 1-5 in Praia, Cabo Verde. The festival aimed to show the importance of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations to young cape-verdeans, through speeches, forums and sport activities.

SportImpact participated in the 2nd day, on an event called Sports for Change focusing on sport as a way of human development. We also participated in the last day of the festival, on the Youth Speak Forum, in which Léo Moreau, Africa Coordinator, had a keynote speech about Sport for Life.

At the end of the festival, on April 6th, with the support of AIESEC Cabo Verde and the Cabo Verde Olympic Committee we organized a Sport for Life event in the district of Pensamento, Praia, to celebrate the International Day of Sport for Peace and Development. Almost 300 children practiced more than 10 different sports.
