During a 90-minute video-conference call, FIFPRO shared its recently published Raising Our Game report, which extensively charts recent progress in the women’s game, including the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and makes recommendations to achieve further growth by bolstering the conditions of female players.

Raising Our Game seeks a sustainable path for women players all over the world to benefit from improved standards, allowing them to reach their full potential and play at a competitive level for their club or national team.
As the international representative of professional footballers, FIFPRO is working towards these improvements for women players together with its network of national player unions, and the FIFPRO Global Player Council.
On the call, FIFA discussed the impact of the coronavirus on the women’s game, and how it is working with stakeholders to help provide support to the football industry.
“We are enthusiastic about working on behalf of players to keep improving the women’s game through a global set of labour standards”
