Football for Hope

Football for Hope
FIFA believes that football is more than just a game. Through its unique power and universality, football can bring people together, transform lives and inspire entire communities. To harness football’s huge potential and support existing football-based community projects, FIFA launched the Football for Hope initiative in 2005. The initiative’s main aim is to help improve the lives and prospects of young people around the world. FIFA offers funding, equipment and training to the organisations running such projects and their beneficiaries.

Football for the Planet

Football For the Planet logo
Football for the Planet is FIFA’s official environmental programme, which aims to minimise the negative impact of FIFA’s activities and tournaments on the environment and to use FIFA competitions to raise awareness of environmental issues. It builds on the environmental programmes that have been implemented for FIFA competitions since the FIFA World Cup 2006™ in Germany. In Brazil, FIFA and the LOC engaged with our stakeholders to find sensible ways of addressing environmental issues and to mitigate the negative environmental impact of the tournament where possible.

Diversity and Anti-Discrimination

Anti-discrimination
FIFA continues to actively combat racism and all discrimination at both the FIFA Confederations Cup Brazil 2013 and 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil, including special pre-match protocols where teams will spread the message that there is no room for racism in football.

Fair Play

Fair play is a fundamental part of the game. Through awards and events, FIFA promotes the positive benefits of playing by the rules and respecting fellow players, referees and opponents.

FIFA and the LOC recognise the responsibility that comes with organising this mega-event. We are taking concrete steps towards sustainability, creating best practices for other major sporting events, and hopefully inspiring others to pursue and implement sustainability initiatives
