Sport & Trauma Recovery

a

Healing through movement, community, and dignity

Sport is therapy, mobilisation, and celebration. Ethana e'World’s Sport & Trauma Recovery department transforms pitches, courts, and cultural arenas into sanctuaries where survivors rebuild confidence, reconnect with neighbours, and access wraparound services.

Rooted in the Ee’WHO Organic Healing manifesto, our programmes operate at the intersection of health, psychosocial care, gender justice, and livelihoods. Coaches, counsellors, and community organisers co-create safe spaces where movement is accompanied by mental health support, organic healing supplies, and referrals to education or enterprise opportunities.

Programme pillars

  • Trauma-informed sport leagues for survivors of gender-based violence, displacement, or disaster.
  • Sport+curriculum clubs blending colour-food nutrition, reproductive health, and civic leadership.
  • Talent pipelines linking youth athletes to scholarships, vocational training, and micro-enterprises.
  • Advocacy campaigns that leverage tournaments and festivals to mobilise policy change.

Every match or practice is accompanied by organic dignity kits, counselling, legal referrals, and data collection that feeds into our health information systems. Partnerships with the United Nations, local clubs, and private supporters enable rapid scale while keeping communities at the helm.

Integrated programmes

Sport becomes a gateway to holistic services: water and sanitation infrastructure keeps fields safe, organic hospitals treat injuries with botanical science, and education teams capture learning outcomes linked to wellbeing.
