Football like all sport should be a force for good, but too often we hear of human rights being overlooked within and around the game.
We looked at football through a human rights lens with our Sidelines Football Film Festival, right before the 2014 World Cup kicked off.<P>Our film screenings and lively panel discussions took place at the Hackney Picturehouse in London, 6 - 8 June 2014.
