One of the biggest lessons I learned last year from my mentor is in one sentence: "Dream big, act small and do fast". If this inspires you too, share your comment.

À l'issue de la mission de l'ambassadeur Lucy Tamlyn @USAmbDRC à Kinshasa en RDC, je prends un moment pour saluer son engagement en faveur de la jeunesse. Sa passion et son dévouement ont marqué une étape significative dans le soutien aux jeunes talents. Merci, Madame. #mwf

Didier Drogba milite pour un soutien populaire à la RD Congo lors des barrages intercontinentaux pour la Coupe du monde 2026 :
« Nous devons nous concentrer sur le soutien à la RDC. Ils représentent toute l’Afrique, et si le Nigeria avait gagné, nous les aurions soutenus de la même manière.
La RDC doit comprendre que jouer sur la scène internationale dépasse leur équipe. Ils portent les espoirs de tout le continent africain. Ils doivent aborder la prochaine phase avec sérieux, unité et détermination. »

🌍✨ Le ballon : un outil puissant pour autonomiser nos filles non scolarisées ! En jouant, elles apprennent la confiance, le travail d'équipe et développent des compétences essentielles. Offrons-leur la chance de briller sur le terrain et dans la vie ! #Autonomisation @babaelva

At Umoja Sport, we've seen incredible transformations in our girls through the Sport for Good program. Many started shy and uncertain, but now they confidently express their thoughts and engage with everyone, including boys!
