In the contexts of malnutrition, conflict, inactivity and unemployment, sport can act as springboard for social transformation, as a gateway to rounded development and as a facilitator for inclusive and responsible citizenship. Not only is sport a bridge between individuals and nations, it can also be an active tool for overcoming stereotypes, rising above exclusion and fostering citizenship. The Power of Sport Values is a collection of the best 15 entries of UNESCO’s photo contest on the power of sport values, selected from over 300 photos submitted by photographers from 76 countries all around the world. Be it in South Sudan, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Bangladesh or Cuba, sport provides joy, fosters inclusion and strengthens social mobilization.
