UEFA Football and Social Responsibility Report – 2015/2016

UEFA Football and Social Responsibility Report – 2015/2016

The objective of UEFA’s football and social responsibility (FSR) programme is to manage the environmental, social and economic impacts of European football, the game having a vital role to play in driving social development and creating long-term benefits for society.

To demonstrate its commitment to leveraging the power of football, building on past successes and assimilating lessons learned, each year UEFA reports on its achievements to date and those of its members and partners, as well as the challenges faced in the fields of diversity, inclusion, the environment, health, peace and reconciliation, solidarity and fan dialogue.

This latest report, the fourth in a five-year CSR cycle, summarises the efforts made during the 2015/16 season to integrate social responsibility and sustainability into UEFA’s business process.

“UEFA is on an ever-advancing football and social responsibility journey,” said Peter Gilliéron, UEFA Executive Committee member and chairman of the Fair Play and Social Responsibility Committee. “The 2015/16 season was a very special one, not least because of EURO 2016, which saw the seamless integration of social responsibility and sustainability into UEFA’s tournament operations.”

Indeed, UEFA EURO 2016’s approach to social responsibility and sustainability earned it ISO 20121 certification for operations from the International Organization for Standardization (IOS).

UEFA’s appetite to move forward and progress along its social responsibility and sustainability path remains as strong as ever. Among the key success factors on this journey are the long-term partnerships UEFA enjoys with a limited number of specialised NGOs, whose invaluable work is also outlined in the latest report. Available in English, French and German, it covers the period between 1 July 2015 and 30 June 2016.
