Main Projects / Activities

SFD has extensive experience in non-formal education, intercultural learning, and international cooperation, actively engaging in Erasmus+ and ESC programs. The organization has implemented various youth exchanges, training courses, and inclusion initiatives, all aimed at enhancing youth leadership, skills development, and civic engagement. One of its most notable projects is Sevens CP Football Team, which was established in 2018 as the first football team in Egypt for individuals with Cerebral Palsy. Sevens is more than just a sports team; it serves as a platform for empowerment, community engagement, and social change. Through weekly training sessions, national tournaments, and advocacy campaigns, the initiative promotes self-confidence, teamwork, and community integration for individuals with disabilities. Additionally, Sevens runs awareness campaigns to educate families and communities about the importance of adaptive sports for people with disabilities and the role of physical activity in improving well-being. Beyond sports, SFD is involved in youth entrepreneurship and digital skills development, providing young people with marketable skills to help them enter the labor force. The organization also engages in volunteering and civic engagement initiatives, ensuring meaningful experiences for both local and international volunteers through structured mentorship and guidance. Through its partnerships across Europe and the Mediterranean, SFD actively participates in projects focused on climate change, disability rights, youth leadership, and social responsibility. By combining sports, education, and inclusion, SFD ensures that all young people, regardless of background or ability, have equal access to opportunities for growth and engagement.

SFD has a diverse and experienced team of youth leaders, project managers, trainers, and inclusion advocates, each bringing specialized expertise in international project management, non-formal education, and youth development. The board members and leadership team are experts in youth mobility programs, sports for inclusion, and EU project management, with a strong background in international collaboration, intercultural dialogue, and social impact initiatives. The leadership of the Sevens CP Football Team consists of trained coaches and facilitators specializing in adaptive sports for individuals with disabilities. These professionals have extensive experience in mentorship, inclusion methodologies, and awareness-building, ensuring that the sports activities serve as a pathway for empowerment and integration. SFD's youth trainers and volunteers are skilled in non-formal education techniques, including interactive learning, role-playing, and project-based approaches. Many of them have been actively involved in youth facilitation, project implementation, and intercultural learning within the Erasmus+ framework. Together, the SFD team ensures that all programs are inclusive, impactful, and aligned with long-term strategies for youth empowerment and social change. Through their expertise, they provide tailored mentorship, hands-on training, and structured project management, allowing young people to develop leadership skills, confidence, and a sense of community.
