What do we want to achieve?
Many young people, often for reasons not of their own making, are failing to reach their potential at school and in society across Pakistan. Geographical challenges, natural disasters and human tragedy has often made it difficult for them to achieve even a basic education. They need the support of a network of educators and a sustainable programme of activity to help them succeed.
The aim of Sport for Life! is to use the power of sport to help change the lives of those children and young people for good through a combination of:
- Sport
- Education
- Healthy lifestyle training
By encouraging young people to increase their levels of numeracy, literacy, ICT, healthy lifestyle training and - in the first instance - cricket, we hope to improve their education experience and help them recognise the importance of participating in sport and healthy lifestyles.
We plan to put in place monitoring and evaluation programmes to ensure that Sport for Life! achieves the best possible results for young people throughout Pakistan over a long period.
