Diversity Wins live: young people engage in dialogue with their soccer heroes

Students engage in dialogue with Club players about racism and diversity

On the occasion of "International Day against Racism and Discrimination" on March 21, a special live interview took place as part of the educational project Diversity Wins. During this session, some 700 pupils from West and East Flanders and Brussels had the unique opportunity to ask questions themselves to players of Club Brugge and Club YLA. The questions dealt with topics they had previously covered in classes, such as racism, discrimination, religion, LGBTQ+, and racism within the sports world. From Club 1, Kyriani Sabbe and Nordin Jackers participated, while Amy Littel and Isabelle Iliano represented the voice of Club YLA.

Diversity Wins continues to connect

With this project, Club Brugge Foundation aims to raise social issues with young people and encourage them to think openly about diversity. The live interview was not only an opportunity for students to deepen their knowledge, but also to engage in a personal conversation with role models from the world of soccer. It highlights Club's mission to leverage its social impact in the fight against racism and discrimination, working with schools and teachers across the country.
