Internationally Kick It Out plays a leading role in the Football Against Racism in Europe (FARE) network and has been cited as an example of good practice by the European governing body UEFA, the world governing body FIFA, the Council of Europe, the European Commission, European parliamentarians and the British Council.
The core priorities of Kick It Out are:
Professional Football
Working with the professional game by offering advice and guidance on all aspects of race equality within professional football.
Young People
Using the appeal of the game to address young people within schools, colleges and youth organisations, through the development and delivery of resources and educational materials.
Grassroots Football
Working at grassroots and amateur levels to tackle racial abuse and harassment in parks football.
Asians in Football
Raising the issue of the exclusion of south Asians as professional footballers from the game.
Ethnic Minorities and Sport
Capacity building ethnic minority communities to engage with professional clubs, the structures of the game and access funding.
European Football
Developing partnerships to raise the debate and tackle racism in European football
