The Peace Project in International Football
In the face of global tensions and wars, the major international football tournaments show time and again how wonderful and enriching our cultural characteristics and differences actually are.
Despite all the competition and sporting rivalry, a great and peaceful meeting of peoples from all over the world takes place there. Beside our national identity, we all belong to one big team - team humanity. Because what unites us is much greater, more significant and more beautiful than what divides us.
As spectators, we celebrate what we have in common. Our opponents are xenophobia, excessive nationalism and violence. Our goal is peace, tolerance and solidarity. We want to win this match.
Hand in hand, we stand up for peaceful global coexistence. Unity in diversity is our vision.
