Goals 5

Silambam Activities:

Actions:
End all forms of discrimination against all women and girls everywhere. It is not hard to see the relationship between discrimination against women and girls and its extrapolation into sports. However, even though this same expression of gender discrimination and disparity appears within the sporting community, sports present a very strong avenue to combat the scourge. Sports can be a powerful platform for advocacy and raising awareness, leading to the abolishment of all forms of discrimination against women and girls. The human rights-based rules of a sport can help to replace culturally discriminative norms that exclude women and girls from sport. Sports and sports-based community programs in particular can, if designed inclusively, cause positive shifts in gender norms and promote gender equality.

The growing scale of the sports industry, and its links with other sectors, offers opportunities for economic growth and decent employment. From sports merchandizing to sporting products development, sports advertising to sports branding, sports journalism to commentary, just to name a few, there exist boundless opportunities for young people to explore and make a living from the sporting industry. Apart from the natural resources of a country or a city, sport events provide the next best opportunity to improve its international image and act as a stimulus to develop tourism infrastructure and revenue over time.

Goals 16

Silambam Activities:

Actions:
One area where the power of sports is most visible and where it has the greatest potential to effect global change is in fostering peace. Equally, sustainable development, peace and security are dependent on universal access to justice and the effective implementation of good governance principles by institutions that are transparent and accountable. The high profile of sports athletes, teams and events gives them significant symbolic status with respect to the promotion of peace, inclusion and social cohesion. National teams and athletes can serve to cultivate collective identities within countries that have suffered from societal divisions. Sports has been used in a variety of ways towards different objectives associated with peace, violence reduction and inclusion. Community-based participation and volunteering in sports can engage otherwise marginalized groups and allow the development of shared identities and social ties.
