Lilian Thuram Foundation: together for education and tolerance

Education against racist prejudice on and off the pitch

The Lilian Thuram Foundation was established in 2008 to ensure non-xenophobic education and the dismantling of racist prejudices. The alliance with the Barça Foundation involves the shared goal of eradicating racist behaviour on and off the pitch.

Among the many activities, Lilian Thuram participated in the presentation of the Evaluation Report of the Refugee Program in Lebanon, Italy and Greece and visited different refugee camps in Lebanon and Greece. He also visited an inclusion program that uses the Barça Foundation's own methodology, where unaccompanied minors are living without adult role models, and took part in an event organized by the Government of Catalonia's General Directorate of Child and Adolescent Care, where cases of successful insertion of minors under or formerly under the organisation's guardianship were presented.
