Over the next two days, experts representing the areas of nutrition, social responsibility, football development and government policy will convene at the All India Football Federation (AIFF) Football House to discuss the ONE GOAL campaign’s implementation in India.
ONE GOAL is the AFC's flagship social responsibility initiative which aspires to be a simple, powerful campaign that will mobilize and inspire the community of over 1.4 billion Asian football fans to take action for better child nutrition. ONE GOAL will raise awareness, scale up programmes and open up CSR funding streams through Asian football events, celebrity endorsement, viral messaging, digital giving and social media.
ONE GOAL India project manager, Libero Sports, has put together an impressive roster of organizations which will participate in the two day workshop. Participating organizations include: Ashoka group, Asian Football Development Project, AIFF, Back 2 Fitness, British Council, DSM, FICCI, Football Link, GAIN, GH Advocates, Magic Bus, Reliance Foundation and World Vision India.
In addition to the above organizations, current Indian National Team and Bengaluru FC striker, Robin Singh, will open the workshop with his personal account of the importance of nutrition in football.
“We are looking forward to hosting this roundtable discussion on nutrition and football to set the foundation for the ONE GOAL campaign in India. Through the fantastic support of the AFC and its partners, ONE GOAL has the power to transform the lives of millions of Indian citizens using football as its primary platform. I’m confident that this campaign will only raise the level of our game in the country” shared AIFF General Secretary Kushal Das.
“I thank the All India Football Federation for hosting this roundtable discussion on nutrition and football. India currently has a double burden of high rates of malnutrition and obesity which makes the country a major focus for the ONE GOAL campaign. I’m looking forward to the next two days where we will look to bring together the football, nutrition and social responsibility communities under one umbrella to effectively create a roadmap for this movement to establish itself in the country” says ONE GOAL Franchise Director Grenville Hopkinson.
