UEFA.tv airs documentary on Outraged in the fight against discrimination
July 21 - UEFA has released the five-part documentary series Outraged on its UEFA.tv platform as part of its ongoing fight against online discrimination, hate and abuse in football.
Next season, UEFA will use the Outraged series as part of a Europe-wide educational project within its federations to highlight the value of respect, the prevention of discrimination of all kinds and the encouragement of equality and inclusion.
The project focuses on children and young people, and will also involve coaches and schools and work with broadcasters to reach a wider audience.
The first four 10-12 minute episodes revisit the award-winning documentary Outraged focus on four specific topics (racism, sexism, refugee discrimination and homophobia) and feature Paul Pogba, Megan Rapinoe, Dejan Lovren, Nadia Nadim, Moise Kean, Shanice van de Sanden and Ruud Gullit among others.
The latest episode of the series deals with online abuse, in conjunction with the Real Scars campaign which launched during UEFA Women's EURO 2022. Wendie Renard, Jorginho, Alisha Lehmann, Karen Carney, Kai Havertz and Patrick Vieira share their experiences and opinions.
Michele Uva, UEFA's Director of Football and Social Responsibility, said: "The Outraged documentary has reached millions around the world with the important message of working together to eliminate all forms of discrimination and racism in football. To engage and educate an even wider audience, we have released this documentary series featuring short episodes on topics related to human rights in football.
"With the Outraged series, UEFA will work even more closely with all of its member associations to help educate players in their national youth teams and academies, coaching courses, their professional clubs and grassroots football clubs, and schools across Europe,” he continued.
