World Sport for All is happy to invite all the members and stakeholders to join the webinar: Sport, Migration, Displacement & Youth Crime Prevention: Building Resilience, Belonging and Peace through Sport.



As we approach the 2026 International Day of Peace on 21 September, come join the conversation and explore the questions: 

What can sport do for young people, and for peace? 

And what happens when a football field becomes a place to belong?


For young people facing migration and displacement, a football field can become a place to connect, build confidence, develop life skills and find a sense of belonging.


Drawing on PlayOnside’s work with migrant and displaced young people in Thailand, this webinar features practitioners and a young voice from the field to share what sport can mean in the lives of young people. 


Here is all the info of the seminar:
