Change through sports

Nelson Mandela once said that “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.“ Millions of travelers around the globe share a passion for sports. They travel the world for their favorite sports – from skiing, surfing, cycling, hiking to diving trips, but many of these trips don’t benefit the places they visit. Travel2change launched the sports challenge to use travel and sports to create change.

How can travelers use sports to create a positive impact during their trip? In an open call for meaningful travel experience ideas, local hosts are encouraged to submit a meaningful travel experience that would benefit their community. Travelers vote for their favorite ideas and discuss the experiences. Sina, the travel2change community builder, explains: “Many travelers are willing to share their skills. They dedicate time for volunteer jobs, and some even pay a fortune for it. At travel2change we believe that if you combine doing what you love with something good we can have a bigger impact.“

How can you participate? If you run a nonprofit or are a local community member from anywhere in the world, submit your idea to host a meaningful travel experience that could benefit your community. Show how travelers can support you to accomplish your goals. It doesn’t matter if it’s a project you’re working on, a unique approach to tackle an issue that bothers you, or a “wouldn’t it be cool if…”, sharing your idea for an experience is the first step toward bringing it to life. As a traveler passionate about sports and social change, discover meaningful experiences you want to join, get inspired and vote for your favorite idea.

Finally, an expert jury will evaluate and award the best ideas according to feasibility, sustainability, fun factor and social impact. Participate in the sports challenge today!
