The United Nations lifted the curtain on
a new website showcasing the transformative power of sport in
furthering peace and creating positive social change around the world. Cooperation is a fundamental component of
sport, which stands for human values such as respect, acceptance of
rules, teamwork and fairness, all principles laid out in the UN Charter. In 1978, the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) labelled sport and physical education as a "fundamental right for all." |
