The Fare network (formerly Football Against Racism in Europe) is a network set up to counter discrimination in European football.[1][2] The network was set up in Vienna, Austria, in February 1999 after a meeting of football supporters' groups, football players' unions and football associations. The network has received backing from the European governing body UEFA, FIFA and the European Commission for its aims.
