Football and a sustainable future

“Football and a Sustainable Future” is an innovative and inspiring event dedicated to exploring the intersection of football and environmental sustainability. 

This event will highlight the remarkable efforts and initiatives within the football community aimed at addressing climate change and promoting sustainable practices. 

It will provide a platform for showcasing how football, as the world’s most popular sport, can be a powerful tool in raising awareness about environmental issues and driving proactive change.
