<p>FIFA has revealed a set of very colorful, vibrant Women’s World Cup posters ahead of the 2023 tournament. </p>



<p>The <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/womens-world-cup-tv-schedule/">2023 World Cup</a> is set to be hosted jointly by Australia and New Zealand. This makes it the first men’s or women’s senior World Cup to ever be hosted across two different confederations. In 2006, Australia moved from the OFC to the AFC, leaving New Zealand as the top Oceanic team. It’s also the first Women’s World Cup to feature an expanded field to 32 teams.</p>



<p>Nine cities across the two nations will play host to the tournament, and each has its own poster.  </p>



<p>Each poster features both the native (Aboriginal Australian or Māori) names of the cities in addition to English, respecting the original owners of the land. In addition, each poster also carries a central design element, the silhouettes of 3 female figures with a football in the background. This makes for a cool effect when you flip through the designs:</p>

<p><br>After the 2022 Men’s World Cup in Qatar that was effectively played entirely within a single metropolitan area, the 2023 World Cup is the opposite end of the spectrum. The nine host cites are spread across two island nations, with the two furthest stadiums being over 3,300 miles apart. The nine cities are:</p>



<ul><li>Adelaide / Tarntanya</li><li>Auckland / Tāmaki Makaurau</li><li>Brisbane / Meaanjin</li><li>Dunedin / Ōtepoti</li><li>Hamilton/ Kirikiriroa</li><li>Melbourne/Naarm</li><li>Perth / Boorloo</li><li>Sydney/Gadigal</li><li>Wellington / Te Whanganui-a-Tara</li></ul>



<h4>2023 Women’s World Cup Posters</h4>



<p>Each poster design shares the aforementioned host city names and silhouettes, a ball, the tournament logo and sponsors. They are each made unique with colors, imagery and symbolism that ties in to each host. Local landmarks, nature and wildlife, and the culture of each host really shines through.</p>



<p>You can view each individual poster below:</p>

<p>The 2023 edition certainly is producing some of the most fun and bold World Cup visuals, for either the women or men, in quite some time.</p>


FIFA unveils Women’s World Cup posters for host cities

FIFA has revealed a set of very colorful, vibrant Women's World Cup posters ahead of the 2023 tournament. The 2023 World Cup is set to be hosted jointly by Australia and New Zealand. This makes it the first men's or women's senior World Cup to ever be hosted across two different confederations. In 2006, Australia [&hellip;]

We take a look at FIFA's official Women's World Cup posters for the 2023 tournament in Australia and New Zealand.

<p>Saudi Arabia is on the sponsorship board for the upcoming <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/womens-world-cup-tv-schedule/">Women’s World Cup</a> in Australia and New Zealand. The country’s tourism board, Visit Saudi, is a sponsor for the tournament, says David Ornstein of <em><a href="https://theathletic.com/4135097/2023/01/30/ornstein-porro-spurs-chelsea-world-cup-fernandez/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Athletic</a>.</em></p>



<p>Note that this is not tied to FIFA’s official sponsors. Those sponsors, such as Coca-Cola or Adidas are long-term sponsors. </p>



<p>Instead, FIFA is changing its commercial strategy for this tournament. FIFA is looking to capitalize on the growing interest in the women’s game by introducing official supporters of the tournament. Thirteen months ago, FIFA unveiled VISA as an official sponsor. Then, just this past month, Australia’s Commonwealth Bank became an official supporter.</p>



<p>Effectively, it is a way to get more eyes on sponsors, and more money for FIFA.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>However, there are major concerns on the human rights record of Saudi Arabia, particularly in the women’s game.</p>



<h2>Saudi Arabia sponsorship of Women’s World Cup raises questions</h2>



<p>Looking back to the men’s <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/tv/most-watched-world-cup-2022-games-on-us-tv-and-streaming-20221208-WST-411671.html">World Cup in 2022</a>, Qatar was the main sponsor of FOX’s World Cup coverage, spending millions. In doing so, FOX Sports effectively ran an infomercial for Qatar during the World Cup, neglecting to report on any controversies or of the lack of freedoms in Qatar.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, fellow Middle East neighbor Saudi Arabia continues to align with the sponsorship and monetary side of FIFA, it grows increasingly more likely that the Middle Eastern country could host a major soccer event.</p>



<p>For example, Saudi Arabia, Greece and Egypt are in the running to host the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/saudi-arabia-could-host-world-cup-2030-says-expert-20221130-WST-410612.html">2030 World Cup</a>. It would be just eight years after the controversy surrounding Qatar’s acquisition of the 2022 World Cup. </p>



<p>In terms of its human rights record, Amnesty International says it is “appalling.” <a href="https://www.sportspromedia.com/news/2023-fifa-womens-world-cup-saudi-arabia-tourism-sponsorship/?zephr_sso_ott=hp520x" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Amnesty added</a> that the attempts to sportswash the human rights record is both “breath-taking and yet entirely predictable.”</p>



<p>Saudi Arabia only started letting women attend soccer games in 2018. Then, two years later, it launched its first women’s professional soccer league. The nation procrastinated until just this month to host its first four-team competition to get an official women’s ranking from FIFA. </p>



<h5>FOX coverage</h5>



<p>It should be interesting to see how FOX handles Visit Saudi as a sponsor for the 2023 World Cup. It proudly embraced Qatar and the commercials throughout the competition. In fact, it seemed every other commercial break had the “let the world play” advert. </p>



<p>Granted, Saudi Arabia is not the <a href="https://worldsoccertalk.com/news/what-times-are-the-womens-world-cup-games-played-20230118-WST-413603.html">host of this tournament</a>. However, its unveiling as an official sponsor could be foreboding for a number of reasons.</p>
