The Zambia IDEALS project formed in 2005 is a unique union between UK Sport and a selection of 6 UK Universities including Loughborough University who collectively make up the Wallace Group. The partnership selects & trains 5 student sports coaches based on their commitment and voluntary work at their individual universities who each travel to Lusaka in Zambia to spend the summer working with local volunteers, organising and delivering School PE lessons, community sports programmes and health awareness workshops within the deprived areas of the Citys compounds.Through the provision of sport, The International Development Through Excellence Leaders and Sports (IDEALS) Project aims to focus on the positive impact that sport can have upon impoverished communities, which are often affected by high levels of unemployment, crime, exclusion and many health risks, including HIV and AIDS. By encouraging children and young people to attend sessions, it is hoped that sport can be used as a medium to develop motivation, self-development and self-reliance and help improve the quality of their lives. For 2016, the 5 student coaches & member of staff from Loughborough University aim to fundraise £15,000 to support their coaching experience in Zambia and provide equipment to take out to Zambia.
