FIFA is the world governing body for association football. It is composed of a Congress (legislative body), Executive Committee (executive body), General Secretariat (administrative body) and committees (assisting the Executive Committee). Its objectives, which are enshrined in its Statutes, are as follows:
a) to improve the game of football constantly and promote it globally in the light of its unifying, educational, cultural and humanitarian values, particularly through youth and development programmes;
b) to organise its own international competitions;
c) to draw up regulations and provisions and ensure their enforcement;
d) to control every type of Association Football by taking appropriate steps to prevent infringements of the Statutes, regulations or decisions of FIFA or of the Laws of the Game;
e) to prevent all methods or practices which might jeopardise the integrity of matches or competitions or give rise to abuse of Association Football.
FIFA has an interest in contributing to the evolving debate on sport policy at the EU level. To that end, FIFA is committed to communicating its policy to the EU institutions, thereby providing its expertise and experience on all football related matters, including the use of the game as a means to contribute to the achievement of educational, cultural, social and health-oriented public policy objectives.Main EU files targeted
