Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>More than 300 students from schools in the country’s capital competed, Friday, in a chess competition at the Industrial Polytechnic Institute of Luanda (IPIL), as part of the festivities of the African Children’s Day, marked on 16 June.<\/b><\/p>\n

During the activity, organized by the National Commission of Angola for UNESCO, the children played several matches, in the form of elimination rounds, promoting interaction between children from different schools, with emphasis on Alda Lara and Liceu Neves de Sousa.<\/p>\n

There was also the participation of students from the Juventude em Luta school, the Luanda Telecommunications Institute (ITEL), 1o de Maio and Brilho Sapiens, who were awarded certificates of participation in the end.<\/p>\n

The group was divided into eight categories, between 4 and 19 years old, in addition to children from the Special Olympics, who are associated with the National Commission of Angola for UNESCO.<\/p>\n

Opened by the Secretary of State for Sports, Teresa Ulundo, the unprecedented project began last April, with training on chess techniques and internal competitions in primary schools of the 2nd cycle of Luanda and Bengo, associated with UNESCO.<\/p>\n

The permanent secretary of the National Commission of Angola for UNESCO, Alexandre Costa, who was speaking to the press, considered the event a pilot project for the practice of chess in schools associated with UNESCO.<\/p>\n

He explained that the \u201cgymkhana\u201d also fits into the fight against bullying and violence in schools, through the inclusion of sports and \u201cfair-Play\u201d, given that chess generates inclusion, promotes values \u200b\u200band socialization.<\/p>\n

On her turn, the director for Luanda’s provincial education office, Philomene Carlos, referred that the implementation of sports constitutes one of the policies of the Ministry of Education, to combat violence in the school grounds.<\/p>\n

He added that the power of sports inclusion is a mechanism that gives opportunity, camaraderie, respect and, above all, attracting talent, who can embrace professional competition.<\/p>\n
