Our Goals

ANOPA's leading goals are “one world” / “youth for youth”, because we are living in the same world and are willing to connect to each other, to support others around the globe. Especially for the young people who are coming together and trying to exchange their different backgrounds. ANOPA builds on the enthusiasm of young people for sports and encourages them to take a serious look at socially relevant issues. It equally aims at the development of structures and networks within the sport community in the country particularly in the Central Region/Cape Coast.

About the Project

ANOPA (Agoro Ne Obra Pa) which translates literally in english as playing for a better life was launched in Cape Coast, Ghana in 2010 based on a cooperation between the Sportyouth Northrine Westphalia, and the Ministry of Generation, Family and Integration in Germany and Ghana. Since 2016 ANOPA is operating as an NGO for sports for development in Cape Coast,Ghana. All of the various sports disciplines are held at different schools and communities spread out through the Cape Coast district which gives ANOPA an extensive coverage area within Cape Coast and its environs.The project uses sports as an instrument for individual development, promotion of gender equity, peace building and conflict resolution, communication as well as social mobilization.

Our Vision

Our vision is to use sports as an intrument for individual development, gender equity, promotion of life and leadership skills, peace building, conflict resolution, communication as well as social mobilisation.

How we make a Difference

Therefore ANOPA Project uses seven(7) different sports (swimming, soccer, tennis, basketball, volley, martial arts and handball) as a tool aiming to have positive impact on children and the young adults.

Apart from that ANOPA has its Life skills programs which is targeted at our environment dubbed NothinLeavesEarth which has the imbeded idea of educating the public about the huge waste problems in Ghana and help to make Cape Coast a cleaner place. By teaching the concept in primary schools we try to implement the idea from the grassroots. Other topics such as HIV/AIDS prevention, among other petinent issues are also taught in schools under our Social Life Skills Programs.
