It only took a few months after winning the FIFPRO 2021 Merit Awards for Morten Thorsby to go to the FIFPRO headquarters, and meet his nominators.

FIFPRO, a trade union that represents players on both a national and international scale, is also concerned with how the impending climate and environmental crises can very soon affect playing conditions, and of course the well-being of football players.

Throughout this meeting, Morten and the WPG team brought FIFPRO up to speed regarding our #2 Community and Green Bag initiatives. There were many discussions regarding potential areas of collaboration in raising awareness and engaging more players in climate action, as well as educating those who would like to sustain our #2 initiative.
