Sports for Empowerment Inspires Girls to Build Confidence, Develop Leadership Skills, and Break Barriers
OUR APPROACH
The Sports for Empowerment program aims to challenge societal norms that often confine girls to traditional roles, opening doors to new opportunities and empowering them to break free from gender-based barriers.
The focus of the Sports for Empowerment program is creating safe and supportive environments where girls can explore their potential through regular sports activities. Our dedicated coaches conduct sessions with the girls in schools, hostels and villages to enhance their skills and confidence. Through sports, girls develop critical life skills, learn to set and achieve goals and build the confidence to overcome challenges. Physical activity enhances not only their fitness and mental well-being but also their sense of freedom and self-worth, encouraging social interaction and helping them feel more comfortable with their bodies.
Vikalp also works closely with parents, teachers, and community leaders to address misconceptions about girls’ participation in sports. By engaging these stakeholders and addressing their concerns, we have witnessed a significant shift in attitudes, resulting in greater community support and increased participation of girls in school and local sports programs.
At Vikalp, we are breaking stereotypes, unlocking potential, and empowering girls to embrace the joy and the power of sports.
