In all the republics of former Yugoslavia, the tumult and violence of the nineties crippled all aspects of their societies. The region’s youth continue to be affected by their countries’ recent past. In 2005, Football Friends was created in order to help this younger generation transform their lives and to help heal the fragmented societies in which they are growing up. 


In cooperation with institutions like the British Council and respective municipalities, Football Friends is facilitating educational initiatives in conjunction with non-formal educational institutions to enhance the development of youths. Currently, the organisation is running football programmes in Belgrade and Foča which have served around 650 participants since 2005.
