The Nobel Peace Center has announced that it will stop working with FIFA on the Handshake for Peace initiative.
The governing board of the Nobel Peace Center made the announcement on Monday after discussing its co-operation with football’s world governing body, which is mired in a corruption scandal.
A statement from the Oslo-based Nobel Peace Center said: “The board asks the administration to terminate the cooperation with Fifa as soon as circumstances allow.
“The board also asks the administration to start a dialogue with the Norwegian Football Association for the Handshake for Peace initiative to continue in the future.”
