This comes in the wake of some former and current women’s players on Afghanistan’s national football team making allegations of sexual abuse against the Afghan Football Federation.

You can learn more about the story by viewing the video below.

It took nearly 2 and a half years for action to be taken against former Afghanistan’s football president, Keramuudin Karim, who is banned for life over sexual abuse allegations on 8 June 2019.

Before the ban, Fifa twice suspended Karim, for 90 days and said it had begun investigating the claims in March 2018 but thanks to Guardian article it was revealed that FIFA knew about the issue long before that.

Many of the People in football circles believe that it was too little too late.

They didn’t investigate anyone but the president, They didn’t go any deeper than the top layer. I’m disgusted with Infantino as a human being, as a leader of our sport. He should not be president of FIFA in my mind. I respect the Women’s World Cup, I respect what FIFA does for football. But I do not respect the way they are governing right now. We gave them a clear and concise opportunity to do the right thing and show that they have integrity. -Afghanistan women’s coach Kelly Lindsey

Now campaign is started by HRH Prince Ali Bin Al-Hussein of Jordan with the objective to stop exploitation Women and girls who play and coach football.

We are attaching campaign video below.
