The motivation states:
"For Farhiya, it has been obvious to get involved in society and help, regardless of whether it is about football, safety walks or collaboration groups.
She has become a well-known face in the area, a person that many trust and turn to.
In her role as a football parent and leader in her daughter's football club, she saw the opportunity to reach new groups - the football mothers.
She invited to training for women, which has gradually been built on with discussion groups.
Football became a platform to strengthen not only the daughters 'but also the mothers' integration into society.
With one leg in each culture - the Swedish and the Somali - Farhiya is a bridge builder in the best sense of the word. ”
The award committee includes national team goalkeeper Zećira Mušović, expert commentator Irma Helin Zibanejad, football magazine Offside's editor-in-chief Anders Bengtsson, elite referee Mohammed Al-Hakim and football player Ivo Pekalski.
