Sharing experiences of sport

How will you be celebrating on the day?

We will be organising a mixed-gender catching volleyball competition with children from various slum communities in Bhubaneswar in Eastern India. Teams participating in the competition will get a chance to convey their thoughts on an "Opinion Wall" on their experience of participating in sport, its importance and their learnings. When not playing a match in the competition, each team will be given an SDG to discuss how sport can contribute towards it.

What does 6 April mean to you?

6 April is a global celebration and recognition of the power of sport to drive social change. It is a day to introspect what has been done in the past, celebrate our successes and look into what needs to be done in the future. For us at PSD, it is a time for stakeholders to share their experiences in sport and development, and link them with pertinent social issues at the individual and collective levels.
