Football for Peace (F4P), a sport-based co-existence project for Jewish and Arab children has been running in towns and villages of the Galilee region of Northern Israel since 2001. The work of F4P builds upon the experiences of South Africa and Northern Ireland in that it seeks to make grass-roots interventions into the sport culture of Israel and Palestine while at the same time making a contribution to political debates and policy development around sport in the region . Its aims are fourfold:

1. Provide opportunities for social contact
   across community boundaries;
   
2. Promote mutual understanding;
   
3. Engender in participants a desire for and
   commitment to peaceful coexistence;
   
4. Enhance soccer skills and technical knowledge.
