A look at the sustainability strategy for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 which is shaped by the key social, economic, human rights and environmental priorities for the current time and geographical context to ensure that it acts as a bespoke strategy with initiatives that drive optimal sustainable outcomes for the tournament in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand:

Promote gender equality and equity
> Identify key issues affecting women and girls in the host countries and region and develop joint initiatives with key partners to tackle some of these issues.

Foster a human rights‐compatible, inclusive, respectful and discrimination-free event
> Ensure human rights, diversity and anti-discrimination policies, procedures and training are in place to identify and address human rights negative impacts and structural discrimination that may be exacerbated by event operations in and around stadiums, at the expense of particularly vulnerable and historically marginalised groups.

Safeguard and protect participants and attendees from harm or abuse
> Ensure that safeguarding policies and procedures to protect the workforce, participants and attendees from harassment, abuse, exploitation and neglect measures meet national and international standards and legal frameworks.

Ensure accessible venues for disabled people and people with limited mobility
> Ensure an accessible event for disabled people and people with limited mobility across tournament site infrastructure, overlay and services.

Develop women’s football in host countries and region
> Harness the power of the competition to identify and develop programmes that will drive popularity, participation and awareness of women’s football programmes and competitions in the host countries and confederations. FIFA Women’s Football Strategy

Protect the health of all participants and attendees
> Protect the right of non-smokers to breathe clean air that is not contaminated by carcinogens and other harmful substances in tobacco smoke and e-smoking devices.

Reduce climate impact
> Create a campaign to raise awareness amongst fans of climate change and its impacts on football, society and the environment, and promote climate action. FIFA Climate Strategy
