Winter / Spring 2006, I traveled to Nicaragua to study multicultural education and Latin American history. The studies lasted 3 months. Through cultural studies I became acquainted with Rigo who is a medical doctor andhas previously traveled extensively throughout Nicaragua to help people in rural areas. He has helped many people with medical problems, and run with educational / preventive measures.During the visit, several of us played football together with Rigo and children / adolescents. When I got to see howfootball can unite regardless of language, religion, culture or age, I was inspired. This got my mind going and suchbegan the idea Futboldelavida.I have a fundamental belief in the humanistic view of human nature. Of which human being is unique and inviolable.This means that the individual has the right to make their own choices and are responsible for the consequences.Futboldelavida is an organization aimed at children and young people in Norway and Nicaragua."Football is a language in itself where everyone can participate regatdless of religion, culture, language, or race. In time, the idea is to get children and young people away from negative and bad environments. Create unity and a sense of belonging and inspire further progress. When I got to see how football can unite regardless of language, religion, culture or age, I was inspired. "
