Open Fun Football Schools

The Open Fun Football Schools project by the Ukrainian Association of Football, supported by UEFA, includes:

• Psychosocial support for children of military personnel, internally displaced persons, and children affected by war.
• Integration and friendship between children of internally displaced persons and local children.
• Inclusive environment, participation regardless of abilities, gender, and inclusion of children with special educational needs.
• Knowledge of safety in war conditions.
• Philosophy of grassroots football - the joy of playing instead of focusing solely on results.
• Promotion of a healthy lifestyle.
• Development of volunteerism.
• Activation of local communities through cross-sectoral networks (teachers, coaches, psychologists, safety experts, parents, youth leaders, local authorities, patrons, and others).
