Continuing the 2026 FIFA World Cup Human Rights Legacy
Beyond Soccer FC works with community based organizations, government stakeholders, and professional soccer clubs to ensure a positive lasting impact lives on years after the tournament’s end.

Champion human rights. Serve your community. Unite through soccer.
The 1994 FIFA World Cup legacy includes the formulation of Major League Soccer and the United States hosting the 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup. This is the first edition of the World Cup that implores a human rights impact. Below are some examples of initiatives host cities plan on implementing:
Anti-Discrimination & Inclusion
A FIFA World Cup 2026 community benefits plan in Toronto will see $20 million in contracts awarded to Black, Indigenous and diverse suppliers.
Environment
Monterrey will install new metro lines and add eco-friendly buses.
Housing, Property, & Land Rights
Urban improvement efforts are occurring around the area of Mexico City World Cup venue Banorte Stadium, including constructing sustainable housing and adding infrastructure to enhance mobility.
Workers’ Rights
The City of Los Angeles passed amendments to the Living Wage Ordinance, granting minimum-wage-earning hotel workers an increased hourly pay of $22.50/hr in July 2025, $25/hr by the start of next summer’s World Cup, and $30/hr by the 2028 Summer Olympics.
