The value of sport for youth to be promoted by UNESCO

Early next year UNESCO, in association with the International Association of Sports Newspapers (IASN), will launch a quarterly e-bulletin which aims to 'raise awareness of sport's power and potential in development and peace initiatives, and to encourage young people to become leaders of positive change in their communities'. 

The four main topics of the bulletins will be: sport as a development tool; youth empowerment and sport; sport and the fight against racism; and sport and violence prevention. Each issue will contain, among other things, an article written by a young person covering the main topic for that particular issue. To find out more, go to the UNESCO web page.
