Grassroots Award Programme
Inspired by amazing people who use capoeira to help their communities we decided to come up with a way of helping them make their projects extraordinary. Through our programme we support talented individuals to build their skill sets and global networks so they can amplify change in their own communities.
The Grassroots Award, worth £21,000, could give your project that crucial leg-up to grow, and serve your community for the longer term. The £21,000 won’t go in your pocket, its made up of specific training courses that you get accredited for, access to mestres and incredible volunteers and of course, people who can fund your project. We will give you some $$$, but it will be an amount based on your personal need. And, to make sure that you have the time to focus on your own training and learning as part of the award whilst growing your project.

Meet the Awardees
We believe that music, sport & play are extremely powerful tools to inspire individuals, bring communities together, and ultimately change the world. Our programs are specifically designed to help young people deal with the impacts of conflict, as well as build life skills and better futures for themselves, their families, and their communities.
We cannot do this alone and we know that our work cannot continue unless we send the lift back down. This is why we are very excited to announce the winners of our Grassroots Award, an initiative designed to train up the next generation of capoeiristas who are active in ‘using capoeira’ and have a track record in supporting vulnerable children and youth affected by the Syrian crises or who are working with Palestinian refugees. We have an exceptional group of partners and supporters like the Idrotts Stiftelsen and Schüler Helfen Leben that are invested in building a global community to reach as many children as possible through music, sport & play.
C4R aims to expand the award opportunity to many more trainers in other countries.
