Sports for Hope and Independence (SHI) and Sport for Creating Pathway (S.C.P.) Japan have signed a two-year partnership to promote social inclusion and tackle key challenges through sports. The collaboration will focus on using sports and physical activities to empower marginalized groups, share best practices, and create healthier communities across Asia.

The partnership’s key objectives include advancing human rights and social inclusion through sports-based programs, raising awareness about successful initiatives, and fostering knowledge exchange between the two organizations. By working together, SHI and S.C.P. Japan aim to expand the role of sports in addressing social issues and inspire broader adoption of inclusive practices.

Both organizations believe in the transformative power of sports to break barriers and unite communities. Over the next two years, they will implement joint projects, workshops, and campaigns to demonstrate how sports can drive education, empowerment, and equality. This collaboration reinforces their shared commitment to building a more inclusive society through the universal language of sports.
