What is a Lightning Talk?
A Lightning Talk is a very short presentation, lasting only a few minutes, given at a conference or a similar forum. For this Lightning Talk, speakers are given 15 minutes to cover their topic, and the audience is provided 5 minutes to ask questions or share their insights to the rest of the group. All Lightning Talks feature the unique volunteer journeys of invited guests, with the hope that they inspire others to also take on the challenge of volunteering for nation building.
Who is Roy Moore?
Roy Moore graduated from the University of York with a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics. He is currently studying for a Master's Degree in political science at UP Diliman. In 2011 he founded the Fairplay for All Foundation with Naomi Tomlinson and is the Executive Director of the charity, which is building sustainable and innovative projects in education, sports, and nutrition in Payatas.
Who is Fairplay for All?
The Fairplay For All Foundation works to empower the street children of the Philippines. Registered in the UK and funded as Triple E (registration number 1141362), Fairplay for All (FFA) runs football teams in Kasiglahan and Payatas as a way to develop the community and raise awareness through football, after the rise in popularity of the Azkals, the national men's team of the Philippines. Payatas is the largest dumpsite in Manila where tens of thousands of people live scavenging for things to sell, recycle and even eat.
FFA also has a drop-in centre for street children in order to assess their situation on a case-by-case basis. Providing for the nutrition of street children, to break drug dependency (particularly rugby), basic education will continue their learning and provide a platform to assess their situation. With a fully qualified and experienced social worker we will then look to provide full-time residential care, education sponsorship, or micro-financing depending on the reason for the child being on the streets. As such, FFA looks to enable, encourage and empower street children and raise awareness of the poverty of communities to promote Fairplay on and off the pitch.
