Report on the International Day of sport and development for peace 2015 celebrations
at X-SUBA
Who we are; We are a registered nonprofit community based organization based in
Uganda whose mission is to use the power sport and Play to empower children and
youth to overcome the effects of poverty, conflict and disease in disadvantaged
communities of Uganda.
We are proud to be part of the movement that believes in using sport as a tool for
development and reconciliation. It was our first time to take part in the celebrations. We
are glad and happy that when we introduced the subject to our young people, there
were very excited about it.
We have since been following social media updates on what the day is about and we
picked interest. Thanks to The International Platform for sport and development for the
constant updates on the day. Thank you for the Page on the day. It has been a good
