Chess for sustainable development
Chess is one of the most ancient, intellectual and cultural games, with a combination of sport, scientific thinking and elements of art. Chess also offers important opportunities for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, including strengthening education, realizing gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls and fostering inclusion, tolerance, mutual understanding and respect. On World Chess Day (20 July), let’s celebrate chess for sustainable development!
Chess is a global game, which promotes fairness, inclusion and mutual respect – it can contribute to an atmosphere of tolerance and understanding among peoples and nations.
