A few weeks ago, after the Antalya Grand Slam 2023, the International Judo Federation and the Turkish Judo Federation went to Kilis in the south of Türkiye. It is in this region that for years a vast Judo for Peace programme, helping Syrian refugees by creating the conditions for better integration, has been carried out jointly with the local authorities.
This year, the delegation's stay also focused on the areas affected by the earthquake of 6th February. Discover the emotional report broadcast by Eurosport.
