INTERNATIONAL DAY OF SPORT FOR DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE
Climbing Life Sport Music Peace

Climbing Life Sport Music Peace

Climbing Life is an educational project, a syntesis of webinars, seminars, thoughts, pictures that now arrive more earlier than April6.
A violinist was the first and, with her violin and white card she reminded everyone of the importance of sharing their white card.
Music and Sport don’t need words, they are understandable to everyone. One ball is enough to start a race. One note is enough to start a dance. Many notes become music. Many White Cards become a strong request for Peace.                                                                                                                                March 24  seminar with the students of Sport Science-University of Perugia Department of Medicine about the sport for social inclusion and peace.

  • I am an ordinary person, gymnast, mountaineer,climber,medicine doctor for all, specially for disadvantaged people, refugees. When I met Peace and Sport I achieved a dream: collaborate for Peace and Development and share many #WhiteCard around the world. Behind my Card I see many smiles, in front of me the hope of a near peace.

April 6th and the WhiteCard offer me an educational opportunity, first of all celebrating the idea of sport as a mean of cooperation and union, and moreover promoting multi-cultural events and initiatives throughout the year. So here I am, behind my White Card!

By the way, what I like doing most is looking in front of my White Card (not just behind), at the thousands people, of any age and from each part of  the world, who have shared this special path with me, for years.

 

Happy Sport and Peace day to everybody!

  • I was born in the “lucky” part of the world, without knowing wars or hunger.
    Since I was young, I was able to practice my sport activities and my medical profession, trying to be friendly with everyone.
    The IFSC and Peace & Sport as well, had the ability to sum up some of the most significant aspect of my life and, thanks to their programmes, I had the chance to realize my own dream of contributing to world peace and social inclusion.
