Make your commitment!
Through the 'One Day One Goal' campaign, Peace One Day aims to see football matches
played in all member states of the United Nations on Peace Day, 21 September.
Each 'One Day One Goal' match will celebrate cooperation, unity and the power of
football to bring people together on Peace Day, 21 September.
What is 'One Day One Goal'?
- an opportunity for individuals, communities and nations to rise above violence,
conflict and differences to celebrate a shared passion and a common goal
- football matches played all over the world, whether in major stadiums, local pitches,
in the streets, on the beach, etc.
- every team is made up of a mix of players who normally may not find themselves playing
on the same side - they might be from different cultures, communities, schools,
neighborhoods, families, etc.
What makes a 'One Day One Goal' match?
You, a football, and as many people as you can possibly bring together to play.

In January 2008, POD travelled to Ghana with our sponsor, PUMA.
Against the backdrop of action surrounding the 2008 African Cup
of Nations, the POD-PUMA ball and merchandise range was launched to
the press, and the inaugural 'One Day One Goal' match took place.
