“Sport for Development and Peace” (SDP), through which sports are used as a means to solve various social issues, has seen widespread implementation in recent years. Although the fi eld has expanded since the mid-1990s and examples have emerged in practice, research, and policy, the development of “sport for peace” is still lagging behind “sport for development” in terms of both quantity and quality. In the Republic of South Sudan in central Africa, conflict has occurred intermittently since independence in 2011, and as of 2021, about one-third of the total population was still displaced either at home or abroad. A lack of trust among ethnic groups and people is considered the main reason for the expansion and prolongation of the confl ict, and the government of South Sudan has held the National Unity Day (NUD) since 2016 with the aim of “promoting peace through sports.” Youth from diff erent ethnic groups and regions from across South Sudan participate in NUD and spend about a week together eating, sleeping, and chatting at the training camp site. In recent years, there has been an eff ort to increase the number of female athletes through endeavors like the establishment of a women’s event. This study aims to clarify the role expected of women in the peacebuilding process and the contribution that sports can make to such processes based on interviews with NUD organizers and offi cials. In 2021 and 2022, the plans for NUD were reshaped due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which also changed the research plan. Keeping these limitations in mind, the purpose of this study is to clarify the purpose, signifi cance, and challenges of peace promotion through sports, including the perspective of gender studies.
