Peter Watson presents:
'Football in Colombia: A Decade of Meaning'
Football is a site for stories, power, symbolism and meaning. In Colombia, in the last decade, presidents, guerrillas, fan groups and women footballers have all used it to tell their stories and shape their identities, making football much more than just a game. Football in Colombia can mean hope, peace, inclusion, equality, visibility, but can also be a site of conflict. This presentation explores those stories and why football might just be 'the only thing that unites us'
