The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the
Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a
universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and
ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. We
have been doing our bit at WenJugglers to give back to those
deserving of a better future.
SDG4: QUALITY EDUCATION
We aim at ensuring that by 2030, young people should have achieved relevant and recognized proficiency levels in acrobatic skills that are
equivalent to levels achieved at the successful completion of basic education. We have identified 16 underprivileged children and support them with Private Acrobat education.
Recent Studies conducted by the Department of Psychology and Psychiatry of the University Of Oxford and Hamburg have dived into the benefits that juggling provides. It was found that the white matter and grey matter count in people that were taught how to juggle increased significantly as compared to those that weren't juggling. The study proves that juggling promotes Neural growth and improves Brain Development. Some other benefits you will derive from juggling are : -

Increase in attention span and focus for people suffering from ADHD

“The main aim of the academy is to promote juggling and performing arts to children of all ages all over Goa and India,” says Wendell, an entertainer in fire acts for the last 35 years, who goes by the stage name Mr FIRE [Fun In Real Excitement], a title he earned after entering the Guinness Book of World Records, for keeping a lit fire torch in his mouth for a total of one minute 32 seconds.”
