Favela Street Foundation
What started as an informal football initiative in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, Haiti, and Lesbos has grown into a targeted programme supported by scientific research, with projects in the Netherlands and Curaçao. Favela Street tend to work with small, select groups in specific areas, who have had a history of being excluded from society in some form. They aim for programmes to foster positive, lasting change focused on individuals, leading to further impact on their wider communities.
