Teams from nine countries – Nicaragua, Brazil, India, Philippines, South Africa, Britain, Ukraine, Vietnam and Tanzania – will work with international coaches to express themselves on the football pitch and with specially trained artists who will enable them to tell their stories. Players will also discuss solutions to the issues they face with NGOs, policy makers and the media, and will launch a ‘Street Child Manifesto’ forming the basis of a new international campaign on street children’s rights.
