Introduction
Who I am?
My journey into the fascinating world of sports diplomacy began with a groundbreaking project: Teqball. As one of the key figures involved in the creation of Teqball, I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of sports and its potential to drive positive change on a global scale.
Currently serving as the senior advisor of the International Teqball Federation (FITEQ) on sports diplomatic projects, I’ve had the privilege of playing a central role in shaping the organization’s global outreach and diplomatic engagements. My passion for leveraging sports as a tool for social impact has led me to oversee numerous CSR projects and sports-based initiatives around the world.
One of the most impactful projects I’ve been involved in was the establishment of a transformative sports program for refugees in the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan. Over the years, this program has provided hope and opportunity to hundreds of children, fostering a sense of community and resilience in the face of adversity.
In addition to my work with FITEQ, I serve as a lecturer on sports diplomacy and national branding through sport at the Hungarian University of Sports Science in Budapest. This role allows me to share my expertise and inspire the next generation of sports diplomats.
Furthermore, I am actively involved as the first president of the European Camel Racing Federation, following an invitation from Prince Fahd bin Jalawi bin Abdul Aziz. This esteemed position underscores my commitment to promoting diplomacy through sports on a global scale.
Extraordinary Experiences
My journey in the world of sports diplomacy has been marked by transformative initiatives that have left a lasting impact. I’ve had the privilege of spearheading the establishment of sports programs and negotiating cooperation agreements with governments and intergovernmental organizations. From the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan to countries worldwide, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact that sports can have on communities in need.
My experiences have taken me to the frontlines of humanitarian efforts, where I’ve worked tirelessly to promote inclusivity, resilience, and empowerment through sports-based interventions. Along the way, I’ve engaged in several meetings at ministerial level around the globe, further solidifying my commitment to fostering collaboration and positive change through sports diplomacy.
