Safeguarding at the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023

Pacific Island safeguarding observers reflect on their experiences at the FIFA Women's World Cup.

At the recently concluded FIFA Women's World Cup Australia and New Zealand 2023, a team of Pacific Island safeguarding specialists and observers offered support across four Australian cities, in an initiative jointly coordinated between FIFA and Team Up.

Nine Pacific safeguarding observers from four countries – Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa and Tonga – as well as staff from FIFA and Team Up’s strategic partners – joined Team Up’s own safeguarding specialists to provide expertise on matchdays and in other tournament settings across Adelaide/Tarntanya, Brisbane/Meaanjin, Perth/Boorloo and Sydney/Gadigal and Wangal.

In this video they reflect on their experiences.
