Taekwondo: Promoting Peace and Humanitarianism through Sport

Taekwondo is a Korean martial art that has gained popularity worldwide for its unique blend of physical and mental discipline. While the sport is often associated with self-defense and competition, its underlying principles of respect, self-control, and harmony have contributed to its role in promoting world peace. The Taekwondo Humanitarian Foundation (THF), in particular, has taken on a significant role in using the sport to further peace and humanitarian causes.

The THF is a non-profit organization established by the World Taekwondo (WT) in 2016 with the aim of promoting peace, social development, and youth empowerment through Taekwondo. The foundation has worked tirelessly to provide opportunities for refugees and disadvantaged communities to learn and practice Taekwondo, in order to foster physical fitness, mental health, and social cohesion.

One of the most notable initiatives of the THF has been its Hope and Dreams Sport Festival, which are held in cooperation with the WT and the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC). The sport festival bring together young taekwondo athletes from around the world, with a particular emphasis on those from underprivileged backgrounds, to compete in a spirit of fair play, friendship, and mutual respect. The most recent edition of the Hope and Dreams sport festival was held in Amman, Jordan, on the 27th of February 2023, and saw over 300 young refugee athletes.

The Hope and Dreams Championships serve as a platform for the THF to promote its values of peace and humanitarianism. By bringing together young athletes from diverse backgrounds, the championships help to break down barriers and promote understanding between cultures. Additionally, the event provides an opportunity for the THF to showcase its other programs, such as its Taekwondo coaching and education initiatives for refugees and vulnerable youth.

In 2023, the World Taekwondo (WT) celebrated its 50th anniversary, and President Cho Jung-won marked the occasion with a New Year’s address. He declared, “If the efforts of the past 50 years were for the survival and growth of Taekwondo, the next 50 years will be used to change the world and realize the value of Taekwondo as a tool to spread peace and hope.”

The WT has been steadfast in its commitment to promoting peace and humanity, and this focus has garnered global attention. With 212 member countries, including a refugee team, the WT has made Taekwondo the most globalized sport, sending a message that goes beyond sports to resonate with society at large.

Through its various programs and initiatives, the THF has shown that Taekwondo can be a powerful tool for promoting peace and social development. The organization’s commitment to using the sport to support vulnerable communities and promote humanitarianism is a testament to the underlying values of Taekwondo. As the THF and other organizations continue to leverage the power of Taekwondo for social good, we can hope to see a more peaceful and inclusive world in the future.

World Taekwondo Championships Guadalajara: Day3

Bradly Sinden ready to put world taekwondo title in Guadalajara.

Reigning champions Bradley Sinden (-68k) will also be looking to retain their titles after making the podium in Tokyo 2020.

“The world championships are one of the two pinnacles of the sport and we have had to wait an extra year to get this chance,” said Bradly Sinden, a taekwondo star of GB taekwondo.

That’s right.

After Manchester in 2019, the Taekwondo World Championships were pushed back by another year due to Covid and the athletes could gather again after three years.

Unfortunately, we couldn’t see the result we expected on Day2, but we look forward to his medal today.

World Taekwondo Championships Guadalajara: Day2

Today, men-87kg, women-67kg, and women-62kg will be held. In particular, there will be a match between Great Britain’s rising star Lauren Williams, and Cheick Sallah Cisse, an experienced athlete who manages the game. Both athletes are Team DAEDO taekwondo.

The women’s 67kg will also be hotly contested.

The battle for gold is expected to be exciting and intense, with the participation of Serbia’s Matea Jelic (Olympic champion in Tokyo 2020), Lauren Williams (silver at the last Games) and Ruth Gbagbi (bronze), as well as two-time Olympic medalist (silver and bronze) Magda Wiet Henin, from France, who won the Grand Prix in Rome.

Previously, Lauren participated in the Tokyo Olympics and got good results, but it was hard to feel that she attended it because it was a special Olympics without spectators. This time, we hope she can get a satisfactory result with the audience’s support and energy.

It’s a category expected to be very competitive, but we hope everyone can show their best that they don’t regret.

It is also worth noting the men’s-87kg class, which includes our experienced athlete Cisse.

Iran’s Abolfazi Abbasi Pouya, the 2019 Cadet champion and reigning Junior World Champion will also be one to watch out for as he looks to make his debut in the -87kg senior category. But this is also a category packed with talent, with the participation of Icaro Miguel Soares (Brazil), silver medalist at the 2019 World Championships; Rio 2016 Olympic champion Cheick Sallah Cisse; and Croatian Ivan Spina, champion at the 2022 Mediterranean Games.

All games are being streamed live now, so why don’t you check out the link below? (World Taekwondo)
