Founded in 1999 in Vienna, the Fare network (Fare) is a European NGO representing organisations that tackle discrimination in football and use football as a vehicle to foster social inclusion and promote diversity.

Fare acts as platform for its members to connect and address cross-border issues in the field of anti-discrimination, social inclusion, integration, diversity, LGBT inclusion, and gender equality across all levels of football.

— Fotbal pro Rozvoj
Fotbal pro Rozvoj (Football for Development) is the flagship program of the NGO INEX-SDA based in Prague (Czech Republic). Since 2006 it engages young people at risk of social discrimination through football-based informal educational activities. The project is run in various regions of Czech Republic (Prague, Usti nad Labem, Pilsen, Ostrava, Olomouc and Karlovy Vary), where Fotbal pro Rozvoj teams up with low-threshold clubs, social services, youth clubs and leisure centres. Together they provide a pedagogical and preventive form of leisure time activity to young people and adults and also give them a space to develop valuable competences directly on the football pitch through its fair-play league, football-based workshops and youth leadership program. Besides Fotbal pro Rozvoj hosts yearly a ‘Football film festival’ which raises the public’s awareness about the role of football in society and gives another perspective on the beautiful game.
