The Anti-Racism Awareness Online Programme is supported by UEFA and Respect. This course on the issue of racism and discrimination is split into two streams. The first is aimed at members of the football community while the second is tailored for educators.
During the course you will be asked questions to help you reflect on the issue of racism and video footage will also appear to help reinforce your learning. The course requires registration and will take 20-30 minutes to complete.
