(Zurich).- FIFA has joined forces with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) to launch the second edition of the FIFA Global Integrity Programme, which is designed to safeguard football against the threat of match manipulation and corruption.

FIFA introduces the second edition of Global Integrity Programme

The FIFA Global Integrity Programme aims to generate, document and disseminate case studies, best practices and lessons learned to enhance the global fight against the manipulation of football matches, with the emphasis placed on ensuring that these resources facilitate proactive and effective interventions.

The programme was first launched in March 2021 and the next edition of the initiative will run from March 2025 until December 2027.

It will be delivered by a line-up of highly respected figures in the field including football law specialists, officials from FIFA and the UNODC, representatives from top sports governing bodies, renowned academic professors, Court of Arbitration for Sport arbitrators, former professional footballers and experts from companies specialising in the detection of match manipulation.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino said: “Integrity, good governance, ethics and fair play are values at the very heart of football and that FIFA holds dear. “Match manipulation – or match-fixing – is a clear and evident danger to our sport and is something that FIFA, alongside our 211 member associations, is working to eradicate.

“As FIFA President, I have set out 11 strategic objectives for the global game, and none are more important than staying vigilant against the very real risk that match-fixing and organised crime pose to our sport.”
