From Inclusion to Leadership: Empowering Marginalized Youth

Training Course

24 October - 2 November 2025 | Hemmersheim, Germany

“From Inclusion to Leadership: Empowering Marginalized Youth” is a youth-focused initiative that uses the transformative power of inclusive sports to foster social inclusion, develop leadership skills, and promote intercultural understanding.

“From Inclusion to Leadership: Empowering Marginalized Youth” is a youth-focused initiative that uses the transformative power of inclusive sports to foster social inclusion, develop leadership skills, and promote intercultural understanding. Through adaptive and mixed-gender sports like basketball, the project aims to break down barriers faced by marginalized youth—including those with disabilities, from minority groups, and economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Rooted in youth work principles, the project provides a supportive environment where young people can build empathy, teamwork, and confidence, while also gaining organizational and civic skills. Cross-cultural collaboration between youth from Germany, Spain, Serbia, Cyprus, and Slovenia enhances intercultural dialogue and challenges stereotypes. Gender equality and environmental sustainability are promoted through hands-on, values-based sports activities. Throughout the program, youth workers play a central role in guiding reflection, facilitating non- formal learning, and encouraging personal growth.

By combining inclusive sports with strong youth work practices, the project empowers young people to become active citizens and leaders of social change in their communities.
