Area of intervention

Sport Without Borders intervenes in urban or rural school- and after-school settings with young persons from 10 to 25 years old. With the help of a travelling teaching bus, we offer for youth a practical but fun resource that is complementary to and/or supportive of NGO or school projects already underway.
