EFDN and the Scort Foundation Have Announced a New Partnership
EFDN has reached an agreement with a new partner, the Scort Foundation.
The Scort Foundation is an operating organisation committed to the idea of a world where children can play sports despite difficult conditions, and have role models that inspire them. The main mandate of the Scort Foundation is the development and administration of the Football Club Social Alliance (FCSA). The foundation initiated this partnership of professional football clubs in 2007. As “first mover”, Scort created an innovative concept of how professional football clubs can get sustainably engaged in international development work.
For the programme implementation, Scort cooperates closely with both governmental and non-governmental organisations and takes advantage of a broad network of specialists in the fields of sport, development cooperation, economics, science, politics and communication.
With the experience on how to link professional football with development work, Scort sensitises and consults different stakeholders on Corporate Social Responsibility.
