sHOrT INTrODUCTION TO THE HOMElEss WOrlD CUp

There are over 1 billion homeless people in our world today. This is a global issue that affects everyone. The Homeless world cup has a vision for a healthy, confident world where everybody has a home.

The Homeless world cup is a unique, pioneering social enterprise which exists to end homelessness. It uses football to energise homeless people to change their own lives.

The Homeless world cup operates through a network of over 70 national partners to support grass roots football programmes and social enterprise development. It works closely with local Organizing committees in host cities to run a world-class, annual, international football tournament, uniting teams of homeless people from around the globe.

The first Homeless world cup annual football tournament took place in Graz in 2003 and welcomed 18 nations. Now it’s grown to include 64 teams from 53 countries – including 16 women’s teams, for the ninth edition that will take place between the 21st and the 28th of August at champ de Mars, Paris, france.

The impact is unprecedented. Over 70% of players change their lives for the better: they build their self esteem; come off drugs and alcohol; move into homes, jobs, education, training; repair relationships; become social entrepreneurs, coaches and players with pro or semi-pro football teams.

The Homeless world cup projects involve over 50,000 homeless people throughout the year.

Partners & supporters include UEfA, United Nations, Nike, Eric cantona, Didier Drogba and Rio ferdinand.

Mel young, President, Homeless world cup says: “The Homeless world cup is creating a level of change in homeless people not seen before. It is an opportunity for homeless people to move from the margins to the centre of a city to take to a global stage, where they represent their country, stand proud and are cheered by thousands. It is an opportunity to light up the hearts and minds of everyone it touches to ultimately create fresh approaches to homelessness. football has the power to change the world.”

(Debut)

One of the key concepts of the Homeless world cup is to support the idea of inclusion and participation for all teams, players, coaches and supporters. There is no knock out in the Homeless world cup. Even if one of the forty eight teams cannot win a trophy they will all play a final on the last day giving them a final position.

while the tournament is a very high calibre football event every player has recorded a victory by being in Paris to represent their country. The Homeless world cup gives people ‘a hand up, not a hand out’ and while the football remains competitive the atmosphere surrounding the tournament is about coming together to celebrate kicking out homelessness forever through football.
