US Hardricourt

France

15 refugees from the Emergency Accommodation Centre (CHU) in Mézy-sur-Seine (northwest of Paris) took part in a match with local football club U.S. Hardricourt, organised by NGO Voisins Solidaires. The match was organised and played to tackle the stereotypes about refugees and to integrate them in the area.

The club is now creating opportunities for refugees to play regularly and attend home matches.
