    Maintaining optimal physical health through consistent exercise is pivotal for longevity and wellbeing. In the context of our sports program, our primary objective revolves around enhancing the health and welfare of individuals, residing in rural areas. We utilize the inherent power of sports to establish robust, enduring, and sustainable sporting infrastructures as well as networks that facilitate safe, equitable, and inclusive athletic activities.
    Our associated partner for this initiative is the esteemed Norwegian Olympic and Paralympic Committee and Confederation of Sports (NIF). The overarching goal driving this program remains firmly rooted in promoting universal inclusion within sports.

    Kubala girls

    Response Network operates an educational sponsorship initiative specifically designed for orphans and girls who are most vulnerable. This program acknowledges its participants as 'Kubala Girls', a term that translates to 'girls who read'.
    There is generous support offered from benefactors in both Norway and Sweden, which presently assists 600 orphaned girls with their education. The ultimate goal of this guidance is not only to augment their knowledge but also to foster better integration within the community as they are able to contribute to the development of thier community.

    The money we receive from our generous partners goes to:

    • Conducting meetings and workshops

    • Building community schools
    • Supporting girls rights and paying for their school fees
    • Helping disabled to be included in education and self-help activities
    • Follow ups and monitoring

    If you are a large donor, we can also discuss specific themes for your help

    as long as it is in line with Response Network’s overall vision and mission.
