During the Panathlon International General Assembly, held in Ghent as part of the celebrations for the Movement’s 75th anniversary, two important new Charters of Ethics were approved: the Charter of Respect, proposed by Panathlon Club Como, and the Charter of Women’s Rights in Sport, proposed by District Brazil.
This marks a significant step forward in Panathlon International’s commitment to promoting ethics, sporting culture and the protection of the fundamental values of sport.
The Charter of Respect highlights the importance of behaviour based on fairness, responsibility and consideration for others, both within and outside the sporting context.
The Charter of Women’s Rights in Sport, meanwhile, reaffirms the need to promote equal opportunities, dignity, participation and recognition of the role of women in every aspect of sporting activity.
With the approval of these documents, Panathlon International reaffirms its commitment to upholding a sport capable of educating, including and contributing to the growth of the individual and society.
