The Football for All project helps Lebanese children by providing them with access to football training centres. Lebanese children have been adversely affected by a succession of economic, health, social and political crises that have impacted the country since October 2019. Their precarious situation was exacerbated by the huge explosion at a Beirut port in August 2020. This summer, they experienced the horrors of war.
Project goals
- Create safe spaces where young people can play football
- Give children from disadvantaged areas access to structured football coaching so that they can spend their free time on the pitch instead of falling victim to the dangers and vices that surround them
- Teach children football skills and instil in them its core values (working together, team spirit, fair play, mutual aid and community) while shielding them from political, religious and sectarian conflicts
- Promote the personal development and social integration of the country’s young people and help them to fill their after-school time
