The
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an
international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide
operations on behalf of the German
Government.
On
behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development
(BMZ), GIZ implements a Sport for Development sector programme, which aims at incorporating
the use of sport as a tool to reach multiple development goals. The sector
programme advises BMZ and implements capacity- and competency-building measures
in various countries.
In
this context, German Development Cooperation (BMZ/GIZ) is implementing a Sport
for Development project in Indonesia, partnering with the Indonesian Ministry
of Education and Culture. The project is following up on results from a
bilateral German-Australian Advisory Group process, which brought up the idea
of a joint project in Southeast Asia together with the respective national
football federations of Germany and Australia, DFB and FFA.
The
overall objective of the multi-actor-partnership is to establish sport, and in
particular football, as a tool to improve the quality of character-building,
“life skills”- and health-promotion in the Indonesian education and sport
structures. Stakeholders from different sectors will be involved using sport as
a door opener and instrument to educate children/youth and to support national
development goals. At the implementation level, the Indonesian Football
Association (PSSI) is the key local partner for the delivery of activities
together with international sports partners. The roll-out of S4D cooperation
activities started in October 2018 and focuses on capacity building for
teachers.
Sport
trainings can not only teach children and young people to lead healthy lives
but also to take on responsibility, behave fairly and address conflicts
peacefully. These are key skills that will later help them gain a foothold in
the working world. German development cooperation and its partners train
instructors, coaches and teachers for this purpose. They are S4D multipliers
and role models, and they help the children and young people to develop
prospects for the future. They combine fun and play with the teaching of life
skills and values. Sport is not just physical exercise; it is part of their
education.
