Lecture outline

This talk explores "The Badu Way"—a values-led approach that uses sport and community empowerment as tools for meaningful behaviour change and positive life outcomes. Centered on the principles of unlearning harmful beliefs and adopting new, constructive mindsets, the session will highlight how individuals can break cycles of disadvantage through purpose-driven engagement. Drawing from real experiences and practices within the Badu community, the talk will show how sport, mentorship, and community support can create environments where growth, self worth, and leadership thrive.
