Project Description
Two workshops, one during the EuroGames in Antwerp and one on October 12, 2007 in Berlin were the kick off to put homophobia and sexism on the agenda of clubs and national FA’s. The new EGLSF campaigne “Football is everything” supported by FARE hopes to bring at least anti-discrimination provisions including anti-sexist passages to stadium, club and FA regulation and statutes as a fisrt step within the anti-discrimination work.

In the future EGLSF wants to widen this campaign. The Advocacy plan 2007-2010 shows that the work within the football community is just the pilot project to implement a strategy to combat all forms of discrimination and to promote equality in sports.
