About This Event

The "Judo for Peace" parade in Kilis, co-funded by the European Union's "Be Active" initiative, was a remarkable display of unity and solidarity. As dozens of individuals from diverse backgrounds walked together, it sent a powerful message of inclusion, understanding, and social cohesion. The event showcased the transformative power of sports, particularly judo, in bringing people together for a common cause—peace. It not only raised awareness about the importance of unity but also stimulated conversations about the role of sports in promoting mutual understanding and bridging gaps in a diverse society. Moreover, the parade celebrated the richness of cultural diversity while emphasizing that, regardless of differences, everyone can join forces to work towards a shared goal. Overall, this parade was not just a walk; it was a testament to the ability of collective action to drive positive change and foster a sense of togetherness in the community.The "Judo for Peace" parade in Kilis, co-funded by the European Union's "Be Active" initiative, was a remarkable display of unity and solidarity.
