Sports Challenge Against COVID-19

In observance of the International Day of Sport for Development and Peace (6 April), the Pan-African Youth Network for a Culture of Peace (PAYNCoP) in partnership with UNESCO and the African Peer Review Mechanism Youth Network is inviting young people from across Africa to take part in the Sports Challenge against COVID-19.
In this regard, young people between 15 to 35 are invited all across Africa to join this sport challenge by making videos of themselves displaying their innovative skills and creativity in taking part in any sporting activity of their choice, as a contribution to strengthen their health, hence to fight against COVID-19 and post the video on their social media (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram) using the hashtags proposed for this Challenge and encourage their friends to participate.
PAYNCoP, UNESCO and the African Peer Review Mechanism Youth Network will re-post entries at random to raise awareness during the Challenge. Note however that re-posting does not amount to endorsement nor final selection.
