Football 4 Peace (F4P) is an activity-based community relations and reconciliation initiative. Sports coaches, community leaders and volunteers, work alongside each other bringing differing communities together through football and aspects of outdoor education.
In this methodology, young people enjoy learning and playing football together in non-threatening settings. The activities and coaching methodology devised by the initiative promotes intimate interaction, allowing longer-term relationships and cross-community understanding to flourish.
Its aims are fourfold:
- Provide opportunities for social contact across community boundaries;
- Promote mutual understanding;
- Engender in participants a desire for and commitment to peaceful coexistence;
- Enhance soccer skills and technical knowledge
