In the final episode of We Have a Goal, we explore how sport can contribute to achieving Sustainable Development Goals, with an emphasis on the environmental dimension. Team USA Paralympic medalist Amy Purdy and IOC Young Leaders discuss ways in which to consider sustainability practices at an individual and collective level using sport as a catalyst and helping link our everyday activities with the bigger impact of climate change.

Reducing inequality is key in creating more inclusive communities. In this third episode of We Have a Goal, Team USA Paralympic medalist Amy Purdy and IOC Young Leaders discuss the inequalities which currently exist for individuals and groups, with a special focus on those with disabilities. A subject close to Amy’s heart, we pay particular attention to how sport can play a positive role in designing and making inclusive spaces for the benefit of both individuals and communities.

The second in the four-episode podcast series “We Have a Goal” focuses on promoting peace through sport. 

Paralympian Amy Purdy is joined by three inspiring IOC Young Leaders: Sophia Papamichalopoulos, OLY (Cyprus), Waleed Abu Nada (Jordan) and Elena Mercedes Haro Lima (Guatemala). They discuss how, through using sport as a catalyst, their IOC Young Leader projects contribute to peacebuilding in their respective communities. Their inspirational stories bring to life how sport can play a powerful role in securing sustainable and peaceful futures for all, which is the global theme of the International Day of Sport for Development and Peace 2022.

How does sport help us change the world for the better? In We Have a Goal, a four-episode podcast series supported by Worldwide Olympic Partner Panasonic, Paralympian and motivational speaker Amy Purdy talks to IOC Young Leaders about their own journeys and how they’re driving change in the areas of gender equality, inclusion, sustainability and peacebuilding.

The first out of four episodes of the podcast series “We Have a Goal” focuses on gender equality. Paralympian Amy Purdy is joined by three inspiring IOC Young Leaders Aneta Grabmüllerová, Olympian Jemima Montag, and Adriana Escobar as they share how they are working towards gender balance in sport, on and off the field of play.
