Call for Applications by 25 May 2022

The Sport for One Humanity initiative is calling for applications of civil society organisations active in the field of sport for development and peace.

The main objective of the Sport for One Humanity initiative is to select and support innovative sports-based projects implemented by civil society organisations (CSOs) that promote a culture of peace, mutual understanding and cooperation among diverse communities and cultures around the world.

In this context, the Sport for One Humanity initiative, established by Turkish Airlines, is supported by the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC).

The initiative will give priority to projects using and promoting sport as a tool for strengthening diversity and inclusiveness, education and empowerment of youth, empowerment of women and girls, inclusion of persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups and fostering peaceful and inclusive societies.

If selected, organisations will benefit from training, travel, mentorship, and a vast platform to boost their visibility and maximise their impact. This will entail face-to-face workshop(s), online training and mentoring by assigned experts to strengthen the effectiveness of their organisations based on their individual capacity and needs.

Interested organisations are invited to submit their application by 25 May 2022, 18:00 EDT (New York). Apply here.

Details of the initiative, application guidelines, eligibility and selection criteria are available on the website.
