World Refugee Day: Sport Restores Learning and Belonging for Displaced Children in Kyangwali

In the Kyangwali refugee settlement, sports activities are playing a vital role in restoring learning and a sense of belonging for displaced children. The education system in Kyangwali operates under significant pressure, often leading to children missing classes. However, sports programs are providing a crucial outlet, offering structure, engagement, and a pathway back to education and social integration. These initiatives demonstrate how extracurricular activities can positively impact the well-being and development of children in challenging circumstances, helping them cope with displacement and rebuild their lives.

This initiative showcases the powerful role of sports in refugee contexts, demonstrating its ability to foster education, social integration, and psychological well-being among displaced children.
