3X3 UNITES

Inspiring youth to make the most out of life is something we work for every day. Being resilient is invaluable in achieving their goals. You can only be resilient and perform with your team, if you take good care of your mind and your body. This is why we are very excited to announce a brand new partnership with Bar-le-Duc. Who will make sure our community stays hydrated and educate us on the importance of drinking enough water throughout the day.

Earlier this summer, we relaunched Minds of Unites. One of the main objectives of the program is to break the silence on mental health issues among youth. Something over half of all young people in the Netherlands struggle with at some point and to some extent. Today, we are incredibly proud to present Emilija Đorđević's story. Ema shares her mental health journey in dealing with an eating disorder. It is crucial for people like Ema to speak out because those facing mental health issues often feel alone and misunderstood. This beautiful and vulnerable piece, along with sharing knowledge on how to recognize and overcome eating disorders, is part of our Minds of Unites platform. Go to our site through the link below to watch Ema's full story, learn more about our approach to sharing knowledge with our young community, and explore everything happening with the Minds of Unites program. 🇳🇱https://lnkd.in/eqh5w_N7 🇬🇧https://lnkd.in/eV8JTmbW #breakingtaboos #sportforgood #youthmentalhealth

Worthy de Jong's journey started in Amsterdam South-East, and now, as he returns to Nelson Mandela Park, he's coming back not just with a gold medal, but with a powerful message of inspiration. By connecting with the young people in the neighborhood where he grew up, he's hoping to spark their dreams and show them that they too can achieve greatness. His presence is a powerful reminder of how important it is to give young people the chance to stay active, grow, and thrive in a safe, supportive environment. At 3X3UNITES, these are the values we stand by. "Do what you love, and enjoy every moment of it." - Worthy de Jong Take a look at this special moment below: https://lnkd.in/e3FhAu7D

Besides celebrating and watching our Olympic 3X3 heroes concur each other at the World Tour Amsterdam on the 12th and 13th of October in the Westergas, we find it important to contribute an important part of our work within 3X3 Unites, namely the day to day social impact we thrive to make for the youth with our programs and activities throughout The Netherlands and beyond. Together with leading (international) experts and partners 3X3 Unites organizes a conference on the social impact of sport. It will be held one day in advance to the World Tour, on the 11th of October. Besides sharing the 3X3 UNITES story, we will tune in on 3 specific themes: Gender Equality, Youth Employability and Mental Health. 3 topics that are close to our heart! Also we’ll focus on ‘making social impact’ and on better understanding the mechanisms behind the success and failure of sport for development programs.
