Bringing you news on FIFA and celebrating how football unites the world.
Founded in 1904, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) is the umbrella organisation of its members, currently 211 national football associations. Its main objectives, enshrined in its statutes, are to develop football around the world, to stage international competitions and to protect the integrity of football (against match manipulation, doping etc.).
FIFA is composed of a number of political bodies (such as the FIFA Congress and the FIFA Council) and the administration. The highest political position is the FIFA President, elected every four years by FIFA’s member associations. The FIFA administration, with more than 800 people from over 60 nations, is based in Zurich. It is run by the Secretary General (CEO).
FIFA stages FIFA World CupsTM in various forms such as youth, men’s and women’s, futsal, beach soccer or club competitions. The men’s FIFA World CupTM is not only the most popular single sporting event in the world but also the financial backbone for FIFA and its efforts to develop football worldwide.
The financial success of the FIFA World CupTM allows FIFA to run a wide range of football development programmes and to provide funds, infrastructure and know-how to its member associations through the FIFA Forward Development Programme.
