FIFA

Jag har gjort lite efterforskningar angående hur jag skulle kunna använda FIFA i mitt projekt och på deras hemsida står att läsa att:

"FIFA promotes the development of women's football and pledges to support women's football financially and to give women players, coaches, referees and officials the opportunity to become actively involved in football. FIFA is helping to popularise the game by increasing public awareness and conducting information campaigns as well as overcoming social and cultural obstacles for women with the ultimate aim of improving women's standing in society."

Vilket passar bra in på vad jag vill göra. Ett av deras mål är även att:

"increase the proportion of women and girls playing football at the grassroots, in schools and at amateur and professional levels"

FIFAs fjärde konferens för damfotboll 2007 kom man även fram till följande:

"Introducing opportunities for girls to play football in schools endorses females participating in sport

This has proven to be very effective for many reasons. Why?

• Provides organised access to a large population of children - good opportunity to have widespread impact

• Activities in schools are generally deemed to be socially acceptable. Adding football to the curriculum and including girls helps to change perceptions for all involved (boys, girls, teachers, parents)"

FIFA har två olika program för utveckling, Football for Hope och Goal. Men om jag förstår det rätt kan bara fotbollsförbund eller organisationer ansöka, så förhoppningsivs kan jag samarbeta med FMF och då söka genom dem.
