The Qatar World Cup 2022 stadiums and infrastructure are being built by Nepalese men employed in Qatar’s construction industry who work for little or no pay.

A few people have begun drawing and sharing anti-advertisements featuring major sponsors that continue to support the World Cup. Take a look!
