Commentary: "FIFA: Landmark Human Rights Report Sets the Agenda"

Voir tous les tags

In a major breakthrough for human rights and sport, today’s report on FIFA’s human rights obligations, released by Professor John Ruggie, one of the world’s foremost human rights experts, has set a clear agenda for FIFA to act and help restore its battered reputation. It also establishes a global requirement for all sports organisations, both for major events and for their ongoing operations including marketing and sponsorship...Sharan Burrow, ITUC General Secretary, said: "FIFA commissioned this report and now it needs to put the recommendations in place. Professor Ruggie has made it clear that the whole package of rights must be respected, without exception, and in every area of FIFA’s operations including but not limited to huge events such as the men’s World Cup.".."This report makes clear that FIFA must act decisively. Equally Qatar, which fails massively to meet the standards set out in the report, must ahead of the UN human rights and business forum which it is hosting next week, make a real commitment to comprehensive reform..." said Burrow.
