Abstract
[Extract] The Future in Youth (FIY) sport program is conducted in Baucau, Timor-Leste and is focused on the education and empowerment of our coaches that we hope leads to the support, development, and growth of social inclusion in their community.
Future in Youth is a capacity building program, which uses sport to help build health, wellbeing and life skills for the people of Baucau in Timor-Leste. Future in Youth engages and educates volunteer coaches to promote key messages of health, wellbeing, and life skills through sport. There are two key components to the Future in Youth program: coach education for volunteers in the community and sport education program for youth. Over the past 5 years, approximately 4.500 youth and 250 volunteer coaches have participated in the Future in Youth program.
