Welcome to Durban 2010: The Deloitte Street Child World Cup
As one of the founding members of the SCWC, and a long-term partner of hosts Umthombo Street Children, Nick Turner, co-director of Street Action will be in Durban supporting the event, blogging and tweeting as well as posting a daily three minute film of the highlights from the days events.
Street children from eight countries from around the world will come together to compete in the football competition. The Street Child World Cup will put the issue in the spot light, celebrating street children's potential through football and the arts and finishing with an indaba (conference) where the children themselves will be given a platform to talk about their experiences, rights and ideas.
Street Action is proud to be involved in this exciting and significant event. Nick will be blogging and twittering during the event. You can find out more info at www.streetchildworldcup.org
