AFRICAN HEALTH

Activities for children and adolescents

African Health & Social Development Orgnization organizes  social engagement activities outside the formal education system through sports and cultural participation among the children of immigrants. Participating in sport, fitness and cultural pursuits provides children and young people with opportunities for enjoyment and social interaction and may ultimately strengthen community cohesion. In addition, cultural participation outside school has been found to enhance engagement and academic progress within School. Sports activities have implications for ensuring the inclusion of immigrant children in out-of-school activities and for their integration more generally.
