Football is not just a men's game: young people in Bujanovac are changing the rules on and off the pitch

Who decided that football is primarily a men's sport? Why do girls and young women still so often face expectations that certain sports are not for them? And what changes when we stop dividing activities into “men's” and “women's” and start creating spaces where everyone has an equal right to participate?

How easy is it to recognize injustice from the sidelines, and how does our perspective change when we find ourselves in a different role? What does it mean to rely on someone, accept support and offer it to others? And how do we learn to respond when we recognize violence, discrimination or exclusion?

What does it take for a team to succeed? Is it enough to have the best players, or is it more important to learn to trust one another, recognize the strength of diversity, and understand that everyone has a role to play? And what happens when we carry those same values from the sports court into the communities where we live?

Who decides what matters to young people? How often do they get to speak about issues that directly affect them, and how often are decisions made without their participation? What changes when young people have space not only to express their opinions, but also to turn their ideas into concrete initiatives?
