![IRTS Podcast: COVID19 or when control and planning are overrated with Helen Vost]()
April 21, 2022
We talked with Helen Vost from Youth Sport Trust International (YSTI) about activities they have implemented during Covid-19. During the pandemic YSTI reached out to connect with young Syrian and Palestinian refugees living in camps in Beirut to provide weekly online training sessions to develop their leadership and life skills through physical activity and sport. First working with a group of teenage girls and then boys, they were inspired by their desire to learn new skills, determination to succeed and love of cricket (the sport they had been introduced to in the camps but had never experienced before). Week by week they saw their confidence grow as they became role models for their peers and able to take on the coaching of activity sessions themselves.

"Learning happens our whole life and physical literacy is essentially the concept of how we learn and express learning through movement. So it is both a process – I acquire it through movement, but is also an outcome – I express my learning through movement. I don’t express it writing an essay about how much I love football; I play football, I live it."
Physical Literacy experts Dean Dudley from Macquarie University in Australia and Rose-Marie Repond from EUPEA take an in-depth look at the concept from perspectives we may never have considered before, including how physical literacy can support the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), why we can compare physical literacy with the periodic table of elements, and many more exclusive insights.
