PLAY FOR PEACE: This project aims to use street soccer the most popular sport in Nigeria as a vehicle to reach out to young people in conflict. The idea is to broker peace and foster friendship among youth from all the water front communities in Port Harcourt Township. It seeks to take these youth away from the streets, creeks and criminality, through recreation and performance and help them transit to becoming responsible members of society and role models for other young persons.
This is a Rotary project led by two Rotarian women ~
Project Host: Rotary club of Port Harcourt Cosmopolitan, Nigeria - Rotary D9141
International Partner: Rochester Rotary Club of Rochester Michigan, USA - Rotary D6380
