À propos de cet audio

In football, ‘curva’ refers to the stand where the most passionate and vocal supporters, often ultras groups, are situated, usually on the banked end of a stadium. It's a focal point of a club's support, often seen as the heart of the team's fan base.


This project explores how football can be a vehicle for social change, asking whether the sense of community and belonging we have within the game can be harnessed for wider collective action.

  • How is football responding to the climate crisis?
    Jun 20 2025

    Elliot Worsop, founder and director of Football For Future and communications manager Dan Hall are with us to talk about how football is responding to the climate crisis.


    We get into the top down and grassroots work FFF does, whether the sustainability targets of the Premier League and FIFA are realistic, the hypocritical and inconsistent messaging by clubs when it comes to climate action, the environmental cost of the unceasing expansion of football, how fans can get involved, plus much more.
