The Union Internationale de Pentathlon Moderne (UIPM) and the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) are pleased to announce their collaboration for the One Humanity campaign. This partnership aims to promote diversity, inclusivity, and intercultural dialogue through the power of sports.
The United Nations Alliance of Civilizations is an initiative that works towards bridging cultural divides and fostering mutual understanding among diverse communities. UNAOC’s mission aligns perfectly with the core values and objectives of UIPM, which seeks to promote peace, friendship, and fair play through Modern Pentathlon and a range of other multi-sports.
By joining forces, the UIPM and UNAOC aim to harness the universal appeal of pentathlon multi-sports to promote the values of the One Humanity campaign. This collaboration seeks to create a more inclusive and peaceful world, where people from different cultures and backgrounds come together, celebrate their diversity, and work towards common goals.
The campaign will also work towards increasing access to pentathlon training and education for marginalized groups and will focus on several initiatives, including joint programs, events, and social media campaigns to promote the initiative and its goals. It will also include the exchange of expertise, knowledge, and best practices between the UIPM and UNAOC to develop innovative strategies to leverage the power of karate for social change.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with UNAOC for the One Humanity campaign,” said Dr Klaus Schormann, UIPM President. “Our shared values of promoting diversity, inclusivity, and peace through pentathlon sports will enable us to make a significant impact on the global stage. We look forward to working together towards a more united and harmonious world.”
“Sport is a powerful tool for building bridges between communities and promoting social inclusion,” said Miguel Ángel Moratinos, the High Representative for UNAOC. “We are delighted to collaborate with the Union Internationale of Pentathlon Moderne to promote the ‘One Humanity’ campaign and use pentathlon moderne to foster mutual understanding and respect.”
