Stabæk Football – MOT

‘MOT’ is a life skills concept which aims to improve the social environment and basic quality of life of young people, by teaching them vital life and social skills in diverse environments. MOT works both for and together with the youth. Its main objective is to promote the development of strong young individuals within a safe and natural environment.

MOT offers a comprehensive model for how the local municipality can work together with its young members. This model consists of programmes designed to improve contact with young people at secondary and upper secondary schools as well as encompassing the arena of their leisure time activities. By the means of youthful interaction, exercises, stories, dialogues and role-plays young people become more conscious of the importance of making their own decisions, taking care of each other and showing courage.
MOT was founded in 1997 by Norwegian top athletes. Today, MOT’s 28 employees coordinate almost 4400 local representatives in Norway, who are responsible for organizing MOT activities at a local level in their respective municipalities. Almost 65000 young people take part in the programme.
