UNICEF and schools have been working together on Day for Change for over 20 years. We ask schools to make a change in their day and ask students, staff and parents to make a donation to UNICEF for making that change.
Sports for Development in Uganda
Each year we choose a different country and a different theme. Day for Change 2012 focuses on UNICEF’s Education through Sport programme in Uganda, where we use sport and play to improve the health and happiness of children. Sport can enrich children’s lives, building confidence and respect, and helping them learn the importance of teamwork.
In Uganda, UNICEF uses sport and play to reach vulnerable children who are often excluded such as orphans, children with disabilities, former child soldiers, child refugees and children left homeless by conflict.
Help us bring change for children in Uganda. Take part in Day for Change 2012.
