As set out in the FIFA President’s “Football Unites the World” vision (Strategic Objectives for the Global Game: 2023-2027), FIFA takes its social responsibilities seriously and is committed to the principles of sustainable development, particularly in relation to climate-related aspects and human rights. These efforts have been defined and refined over the past 20 years, considering environmental, social and economic aspects, and continue to evolve in line with international best practice.
FIFA’s approach is to develop, implement and report against bespoke sustainability (and human rights) strategies for events, whilst also undertaking supply chain due diligence, addressing greenhouse gas emissions and fostering sustainability in stadium operations, including waste management, for the FIFA World Cup and FIFA Women’s World Cup.
