To Sepp Blatter, President of FIFA:

As global citizens appalled by the conditions migrant workers in Qatar are forced to work under to build stadiums for the World Cup, we urge you to take a stand to stop the rising World Cup death toll. FIFA is responsible for what happens in the World Cup’s name. Please demonstrate that these men’s lives are worth more to FIFA than a football stadium.

FIFA: Stop the World Cup deaths
"Look at this. Is this fit for a human?"...“It is ok if you don’t give us money, but please send us home.”

These are messages from workers enslaved to construction companies in Qatar. And they want out - with or without pay - because they're watching men on their work sites die at a rate of almost one per day from on-the-job accidents and heart failure. All of this death is for a building spree for the 2022 World Cup.

If nothing is done, 4,000 men will be dead when the world tunes into the opening ceremony of the games. Unless we show that these men’s lives are worth more than a football stadium.

Sign to demand the World Cup governing body, FIFA, take a stand to stop the death toll or move the cup from Qatar. If 100,000 of us stand behind this campaign, we will have the power we need to bring our call directly to the FIFA president, push sponsors and stars like Lionel Messi to take a stand with us and show the world that nobody should profit from a stadium held up by the death of thousands of men.
