Asian Football Development Project CEO Says World Football Should Promote Social Agenda

Asian Football Development Project CEO Urs Zanitti said that "world football is not doing enough to promote a social agenda and calls on Asian football to utilize the power of the game to develop their societies," according to WORLD FOOTBALL INSIDER. The Jordan-based non-governmental organization, which is chaired by FIFA VP Prince Ali Bin Hussein, is leading a drive to implement corporate social responsibility policies in Asian federations, but Zanitti said that "much more can be done worldwide to utilize football for the common good." Zanitti: "The global football family is not doing enough, that is for sure, and should do much more, that is absolutely clear. Where to start and what to do is the difficult question" (WORLD FOOTBALL INSIDER, 9/24).
