Football and Post-War Reintegration: exploring the role of sport in DDR processes in Sierra Leone, Third World Quarterly, 32:3, 395-415
Using a case study on Sierra Leone, this paper focuses on the potential role of sports in DDR to determine how ex-youth combatants, camp administrators and caregivers perceive the role and significance of sporting activities in interim care centers (ICCs) or DDR camps. It argues that sporting experiences in DDR processes are fruitful microcosms for understanding nuanced forms of violence and healing among youth combatants during their reintegration process.
