Sport as a tool in prevention of GBV

A two-year project co-funded by the EU through a consortium of women's organizations (Mediterranean Women's Fund, Calala and EWI), enabled us to use sport as a tool in solving social problems such as exclusion and gender-based violence. Through workshops with a psychologist, free boxing training sessions and football tournaments, the project brought together over 120 active participants – teenagers from elementary schools and sports clubs from two municipalities (Vogošća and Ilijaš), enabled new inclusion of Roma girls, and the spread of the methodology beyond the borders of BiH.
