 Beliefs 

Our beliefs center upon valuing all people and CHA principles. Since (CHA) Courageous, Honest, Accountable people feel good about themselves and treat others respectfully, they positively influence society. When top-down influencers, including government, schools, and parents act upon high-level principles, everyone wins as humans want the following deep down:

​

  • Less conflict, hate, violence and crime

  • Human rights and freedom for all

  • Education and vocation opportunities

  • Innovation

  • Economic prosperity

  • Happiness

The inclusive nature of Sport, Music, and the Arts are great tools to increase knowledge, understanding and awareness about peaceful co-existence. Sport-Music-Art based development activities ensure that these powerful and diverse elements of civil society become an active and committed force in the global partnership for development... a true formula of ‘peace.’

  • ‘Sport’ is an effective delivery mechanism for education about peace, tolerance, and respect for opponents, regardless of ethnic, cultural, religious, or other differences.

  •  ‘Music’ is the universal language of peace throughout the world, bridging all boundaries

  • ‘The Arts’ is the gifted ‘soul of creation.’
