Partnerships contribute achieve sustainable development
GAME’s core empowerment methodology is based on the idea that young people are key agents of social change. Therefore, GAME works with young people to create youth-led initiatives that are designed to meet the specific needs of their communities.
As the activities are designed and implemented together with a range of partners specialised in different areas of sustainable development, including governments, non-governmental organizations, corporations, and individuals, GAME’s approach to social change through street sports and culture is an innovative and effective way of achieving sustainable development.
By working with young people and communities to create youth-led initiatives, and by partnering with a range of stakeholders, GAME is able to achieve impacts in areas such as health, education, gender equity, and community development.
