"UEFA Working Group returns to Qatar five months ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2022", 29 Jun 2022

The UEFA Working Group, which was set up in May 2021, made its third site visit to Qatar to meet key institutions and individuals in the host country as the tournament draws closer.

Chaired by UEFA, the group was composed by senior representatives from member associations, who carried out meetings with the following institutions and individuals:

  • Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy
  • Qatar Football Association
  • 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar LLC
  • Hospitality Sector Working Group
  • International Labour Organisation
  • Ministry of Labour
  • National Human Rights Committee
  • FIFA
  • Migrant workers from multiple nationalities across different sectors
  • Centre for Sports and Human Rights
  • Institute for Human Rights and Business

The scope of the meetings, conducted with the full support of the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy, focused on a broad range of human rights, grievance mechanisms, LGBTQI+ rights and press freedom.

Whilst the legislative development is positive, it was noted that universal implementation is still required. The meeting with the migrant workers confirmed that progress has been made but highlighted a clear need for:

  • additional legal support,
  • a shelter for any abused workers,
  • translation services for workers to fill in official forms and access to information on rights.
