Football is the most popular sport in the world and there is hardly anyone in this world who has not kicked a ball at some point in their life. All parts of society meet each other on and around the football pitch. The power of football to create social change is unparalleled. At the same time, football events have been scared by episodes of racism and homophobia. At the nexus of #OYW The Hague and #Football People Action Week, players, fans and clubs get together to discuss how to unite the world around football and work on inclusion for all.

We invite One Young World delegates, ADO supporters, football clubs from the Netherlands and other fans of the game or the diversity debate to join us. We will pamper you with great food, VIP tickets to ADO Den Haag - Alkmaar and an inspiring debate. Starting in the Cars Jeans stadium inThe Hague, let's enjoy the beautiful game and get to action.
