The International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, celebrated on 6th April, is a day to recognize the power of sports in promoting development, peace, and social change. This day highlights the role that sports can play in bringing people together, promoting healthy lifestyles, and fostering social integration.

The Skills4sports project is a great example of how sports can be used as a tool for development and peace. Skills4sports is an initiative that aims to promote youth development through sports. The project focuses on using sports to develop the life skills of young people, such as teamwork, leadership, and communication, and to foster social inclusion and intercultural understanding.

The project also promotes social inclusion and intercultural understanding. Through sports, young people from different backgrounds and cultures are brought together and given the opportunity to learn from each other. The project helps to break down barriers and build bridges between communities, promoting social cohesion and peace.

As we celebrate this day, let us continue to promote the use of sports as a tool for development and peace, and let us continue to support initiatives like the Skill4sports project that are making a real difference in the lives of young people.
