Panathlon Club Minas - Mega Torneo Internacional de Volleyball Femenino "La Ruta del Volley"
Published in News from ClubsLos pasados días 6, 7 y 8 de setiembre se disputó en Minas, Uruguay; la 5ta edición del Mega Torneo Internacional de Volleyball Femenino llamado "La Ruta del Volley".
Participaron Clubes de Argentina, Brasil, Perú y de todas las regiones de Uruguay.
El número de competidoras superó las 1.000 jugadoras, que en forma simultánea en 9 gimnasios de Minas, durante tres días desbordaron la ciudad de volley.
El éxito de esta competencia es el resultado del trabajo conjunto y coordinado de dos entrenadores, que en la práctica son adversarios en sus respectivos Clubes, nos referimos a Sofía Collazo y Javier Vázquez.
Entendiendo que esa actitud constructiva y generosa en pos del bien común mayor como es el desarrollo internacional del Volleyball, representa una clara muestra de juego limpio, es que Panathlon Club Minas reconoció a ambos Entrenadores como merecedores del reconocimiento "Fair Play"
La competidora internacional Florencia Aguirre fue quien entregó las distinciones en nombre del Panathlon.

On 9 September 2024, Unesco Paris hosted Handi-capacités, an international organisation run by Panathlon France and the Sanitus Foundation.
Marc Rozenblat, physician and President of Panathlon France, had initiated this exceptional event.
Representatives and ambassadors from all over the world took an active part in the congress, which highlighted the need for international cooperation to promote the social development of anyone affected by a disability.
Sport is a catalyst, but above all it is a stimulator of personal development and social integration, which needs no explanation to any Panathlon member.
The 17th Paralympic Summer Games were the best proof of this. Rarely have athletes in their own Paralympic discipline been so strongly encouraged, admired and applauded.
New role models have appeared in the firmament of sport. In the media, we have been inundated with daily records and highlights in Olympic sports.
Finally, the concept of integration is no longer a conglomeration of letters, but a hopefully a new reality.
Nevertheless, in Paris we only saw the result of immense efforts. Did we see how individual personalities managed to rise so far above their abilities and disregard their disabilities?
Human capacities are much stronger than disabilities.
That's why their achievements give substance to the term Handi-Capacités.
The whole conference revolved around this theme.
In addition to physical disabilities, the focus was on mental disabilities such as autism.
Panathlon International was strongly represented with delegations from Europe and South America. Paul Standaert, President of the Belgium District, represented Giorgio Chinellato, International President of Panathlon.
In his speech, Paul Standaert highlighted the many initiatives that already exist within governments in the fields of sport, education, social security and employment, to name but a few. International organisations such as Unicef and Unesco play an active role in promoting initiatives that foster the social development of all people, whether able-bodied or disabled.
This multiplicity of initiatives threatens to become a vast forest in which the disadvantaged have difficulties to find their way and, at the same time, do not have the appropriate support they are looking for. Paul Standaert stressed the importance of guiding and assisting those seeking help in this multimedia world full of well-meaning procedures and regulations. He compared it to records that need to be merged into a strong but above all accessible offering. Even more for those who don't have access to the world of multimedia.
The many speakers gave an overview of all the initiatives that already exist or that have been launched today. The Handi-Capacities concept is an application of the Panathlon Declaration. Every child has the right to take part in sport, at his or her own level, in an appropriate environment and setting.
Panathlon International has the vision and the merit to clarify and promote these rights.
Every opportunity to put this on the table is another step towards achieving our mission.

WORLD FAIR PLAY DAY
Published in News from Panathlon InternationalThe celebration of the World Fair Play Day and the 2nd Award Ceremony ‘Fair Play for Peace’ of the EFPM took place at the Gothic Hall of the City Hall of Brussels.
Present at the celebration were the President of the International Fair Play Committee, Yeno Kamuti, the Past President of Panathlon International Pierre Zappelli and the President of Panathlon Club Wallonie-Bruxelles and the European Fair Play Movement, Philippe Housiaux.
The ceremony was marked by an exceptional moment.
Kelly T. Clements, UNHCR Deputy High Commissioner for Refugees was awarded the ‘Fair Play for Peace’ prize by the European Fair Play Movement in recognition of her work to highlight the impact of sport in spreading the positive values of peace and solidarity around the world. The Prize, awarded annually to an institution or association, highlights the positive impact of sport in spreading these essential values on a global scale.
This award underlines UNHCR's unwavering commitment to initiatives such as the ‘More than a game’ strategy, which promotes sport, not only as a form of entertainment, but as a powerful tool to promote peace, the inclusion of refugees in host communities and the creation of bonds of solidarity between people.
‘The office of the High Commissioner for Refugees should not exist if our world lived in harmony and peace,’ Philippe Housiaux stressed. ‘Unfortunately, 120 million forcibly displaced persons remind us daily how incapable our society is of finding acceptable human solutions. By awarding this prize, the European Fair Play Movement modestly recognises the immense hope represented by the work of the UNHCR: that of welcoming these forcibly displaced people to prepare for Peace’.

Fábio Figueiras -Responsible Director for International Relations at Panathlon Clube de Lisboa participated in the 20th Sports Management Forum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he not only mentioned the work and efforts related to the SAMF Project, but also mentioned the importance of our panathletic values and the importance of these for sport.
It was a good opportunity to talk about and promote panathletic values, as the seminar was on the topic of Match-Fixing and many important stakeholders were present (e.g. prosecutors, Brazilian Olympic Committee directors, international and also Brazilian police officers, lawyers, etc.).

El panathlon Club Buenos Aires, preparó tres videos para festejar el día del Fair Play.
Son diferentes personas relacionadas con la educación -cuidadores, profesores de educación fisica, y dirigente deportivo- quienes se manifiestan por sus ideas sobre el Fair Play.
