Happy Tuesday!
In light of the recent political turmoil, this fortnight we take the chance to reflect on the power of sport to unite.
Sport for Development and Peace expert Catherine Houston looks to the example set by Nelson Mandela to guide us through these challenging times. READ IT HERE!
"While Mandela will be remembered for many awe-inspiring accomplishments, his understanding of the power and potential of sport to affect change and promote peace was and continues to be unparalleled among world leaders. Mandela placed trust in the influence of sport to reconcile a nation." READ CATHERINE'S POST HERE!
In the spirit of reflection, today we also share with you the profound thoughts of Vanessa Chakour, our director of sustainability and native programs. Cultivating the Strength of Vulnerability: Healing from Sexual Violence
We wish you peace, and the fortitude to offer compassion to all your interactions, on and off the field.
With best wishes,
Sam Parfitt and The True Athlete Project Team
