‘Football can inspire communities and break down barriers. Football is for all…everybody has the right to play football free from discrimination or prejudice’ –\u00a0FIFA<\/p>\n
You won’t often see Belgium playing ball with Russia, or Iran standing shoulder to shoulder with Argentina. But events like the World Cup offer a rare chance for politically opposed countries to interact in a way that governments don’t allow.<\/p>\n
In a sporting tournament, should we ignore a country’s track record of suppressing journalists, censoring campaigners or blocking the internet? Or should we blow the whistle on free speech abusers and show the worst free-speech abusers a red card?<\/p>\n
For our\u00a0first #IndexDrawTheLine<\/a> event, we\u00a0are opening up our offices to anyone under the age of 25 to come and debate this thorny question. Join us to find out who the worst offenders at Rio 2014? And have your say on what referees should do: let countries play on or give them a red card?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n WHEN:<\/strong> Monday 30th June, 5.30-7pm <\/p>\n DRAW THE LINE<\/a> is a new project\u00a0for tomorrow\u2019s leaders, artists, journalists and campaigners to get involved in fighting censorship: share your thoughts in the #IndexDrawtheLine discussion forum<\/a>, take on the debate at our monthly events or\u00a0contribute to our\u00a0Young Writers \/ Artists programme<\/a>.
