Ashoka, alongside its global network of Ashoka Fellows and partners, works to transform sporting events into powerful catalysts—platforms that elevate changemaker density and inspire communities worldwide to embrace lasting positive change

Ashoka and the Homeless World Cup aimed to reimagine the legacy of sporting events at the 2024 Homeless World Cup in Seoul. Through this collaboration, we engaged key legacy stakeholders—policymakers, journalists, students, and academics—in conversations around the Homeless World Cup as a model for sport that prioritizes inclusion and drives positive social impact and their role in contributing to this legacy.
