CREATE SAFE SPACES FOR PLAY FOR ALL LEVELS
WE United creates safe spaces for play at all skill-levels based on the theory that women’s empowerment through sport is most effective when womxn and girls are provided with spaces that are intentionally designed for them.
WE believe in the power of sports to build leadership and communication skills; an ability to balance pride and humility and competition and camaraderie; to promote mental and physical health and positive social relationships. But WE also believe that these skills can only be transferred in safe spaces intentionally designed for womxn, taking into account their needs, risks and strengths.
MAHILA PREMIER LEAGUE

WE UNITED TOURNAMENTS
WE United tournaments bring together 100+ women and girls of all skill-levels for one-day experiences designed to provide a safe space for women and girls to challenge themselves, engage in teamwork, display sportswomanship, and cultivate competitiveness and the desire to win.
WE UNITED ACADEMY
The WE United Project runs an all-girls futsal academy in Kathmandu with a mission of providing grassroots-level training for girls from an early age. WE United Academy, we believe is Kathmandu’s first and only futsal academy coached by women and exclusively for girls.
FRIENDLY GAMES
Every Saturday, The WE United Project organizes friendly games for girls and women in Kathmandu. The games are open to all skill-levels and are meant to allow girls and women to build their understanding of the game and enhance their skills in a fun, competitive, yet supportive environment.
