Building bridges between sport, culture and generations

Urban Bridge is a cultural, social and sports initiative developed in the context of the Youth Olympic Games Dakar 2026. Our goal is to turn the energy of the Games into a lasting legacy for young people, creating connections between sport, urban cultures, education and civic engagement. The project takes place in Guédiawaye, a young and dynamic city of the Dakar metropolitan area, known for its urban culture, its network of associations and its community initiatives. Urban Bridge is built together with local players: associations, sports organisations, schools, artistic collectives and cultural partners.

We support local dynamics and highlight the initiatives of Dakar’s urban neighbourhoods.
