ISCA or IYLE has a wonderful concept.
I think it is a great idea to educate youth in a non-formal way by using sport, because that way it may actually go in. In events like this youth learns without even knowing it. I completly agree, sport and activities can be used for education purposes, and the image of sport needs to be challenged.

I have been a participant in a youth event offered by ISCA and found the methods and tools used unique. I was just enjoying meeting so many diverse people and playing games, having discussions, working together and everytime we had a moment for reflection regarding what had taken place I was always amazed at how much you learnt each time! Its great to learning while just having fun with people from some many different countries!
I think it really works, the events provide us (youth) with a platform where we can meet and have fun with people you don't know at all because everyone has a same intrest in sport or everyone is at the same level because no one knows anyone else. And by the end of the event the group has formed a relationship with people from so many different places in the end I think no one comes out without having a more open mind. This concept brings together people and gets them to build relationships with people they may previously have had a predjudice against, by using sport is a tremenduse job.
In these events, you are always challenged, doing something positive and talking and hearing different perspective of how to get over the climbing wall or play a simple game, however, this simple action gets rid of barriers that in a discussion may still be there, the use of these activities allow for the discussions which take place afterword to be more inclusive of everone in the group...
For the people involved these activities are unforgetable!

According to my information, ISCA is represented by apart people, who believe strongly in civilisation and culture promotion through sport. The intelligent fight for the materialization of their noble purpose, which I consider revolutionary and of interest for the world civilisation, fascinated me.
I have been convinced that ISCA selects with great responsibility and professionalism the partners with which it collaborates. According to my and my colleagues information, we consider that ISCA is, through the constant professionalism, one of the most respectable institutions from the domain of sport, civilisation and culture promotion at international level. The remarkable results are owed to efficient work methods through which it is carefully pursued the maximum impact of the promotion of ISCA’s objectives.
One great master told me, not long ago, that “on Earth a new evolved species of humans appeared that will contribute to a new progress of mankind”. I am convinced that I have met these people, organized in ISCA.
I feel honoured to wish a lot of success in all activities and steps that these members who form ISCA will go through. I thank them from all my heart for what they have done for me, as I believe all youth do that have benefited from the support of this special team.
