Fifteen Years of FOOTBALL IS MORE in Numbers

FOOTBALL IS MORE

Since the foundation was set up in 2011, 135 projects for participation and inclusion have taken shape. 46,147 young people were able to take part, 113,845 guests were made aware of the subject of inclusion, and 26 countries have benefited from the projects.

Behind every one of these numbers there are people. 3,877 volunteers have carried the projects. In August, at the 13th International Inclusion Cup in St. Gallen, 930 players from 34 teams stood on the pitch together, people with and without disabilities.

Numbers tell only half the story. The other half is the encounters behind them. And many of those are still to come.
