Palestine: Sports for Life (PS4L) is a leading Palestinian non-profit Sport for Development organization based in Ramallah, founded in 2010. PS4L responds to developmental needs in marginalised Palestinian communities through sport and life skills, and empowers youth and women by operating in a global context. Our developmental activities and 13 programs are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). PS4L‘s overall mission is to enrich the lives of Palestinian children, youth and women by using Sports for Development to achieve the SDGs. PS4L implements programs focused on: (1) quality education (English Language), (2) health and well-being, (3) child and youth development, (4) child safeguarding, (6) economic infrastructure development, (7) women and youth empowerment, (7) gender equity, (8) persons with disability and inclusion, (9) climate action and disaster response, and (10) international cultural exchange. PS4L has four full-time staff members in the West Bank and Gaza office, in addition to 50 trainers and senior trainers. Our trainers come from different communities across Palestine including East Jerusalem. By implementing our sports for development programs, we continuously assess the impact of our interventions to further develop future local programs. We believe that monitoring and evaluating our interventions is an inseparable part in developing our programs to meet the unique needs of the Palestinian community. Our Senior Officers in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza, regularly monitor and modify all program activities through follow-up visits and evaluate based on program indicators.
