TackleAfrica uses the power and popularity of football to deliver sexual health education to young people on football pitches across the continent. They train African coaches to use fun, interactive football drills with inbuilt health messaging with young people in their clubs and communities.

Football is a great way to engage with young people regularly – something that traditional health programmes and clinics often struggle to do.  It provides a platform for regular health education with a respected and informed coach. Also offering a safe space for young people to discuss sensitive issues.  Our programmes improve understanding of key sexual health issues, give young people the skills and confidence to make safe decisions, and provide access to youth-friendly services such as HIV testing and counselling. 

Each drill contains a sexual health message that unfolds as they play. Drills are designed so that young people learn through play, in a way they enjoy, remember and understand. Through the messages in these drills, They educate and challenge young players to make safer decisions. limiting the impact of HIV and related sexual and reproductive health rights issues – including contraception, family planning, gender-based violence (including FGM and child marriage) and girls’ empowerment - in their families and communities.

We appreciate any and all donations you can afford to give to help support Tackle Africa and their cause.
