AFC Joins UEFA and CONCACAF to Protect FIFA World Cup Integrity
AFC Stands in Solidarity with UEFA and Concacaf to Protect the FIFA World Cup
The Asian Football Confederation stands with UEFA and CONCACAF against FIFA's proposed Forward Enterprise, warning that private investment threatens the World Cup's unity. We argue that the current governance failures and lack of meaningful consultation risk a global boycott. FIFA must urgently reform its decision-making processes to ensure transparency and collective ownership of the game's future.
Meaningful democracy is not measured solely by the opportunity to vote. It begins with transparent governance, timely consultation, informed deliberation and genuine participation throughout the decision-making process.
