7,243 views 3 months ago
In Uganda, a new sport is driving social change. It is boosting school attendance and providing a unique space for girls and boys to play side-by-side. The sport is quidditch, and the small rural village of Katwadde is about to host the country’s first-ever national tournament. Still curious?
