Approximately 90% of the world’s youth live in low and middle income countries. Often the well-being and mental health of these young people is not a priority. In South Africa, for example, only one in ten receive the support they need, and many of those who do not receive help, drop out of school or become unemployed. It is therefore important to invest resources at an early stage.

In this project, the Isiqalo Foundation Trust (also known as Waves for Change) wants to combine sports activities with psychosocial and trauma-awareness elements that increase the well-being of young people and their mental health.

The project is supported with SEK 3,280,000.
