The International Teqball Federation (FITEQ) has thrown its weight behind the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) #OneHumanity campaign.

The programme seeks to advance solidarity, cooperation and cross-culture dialogue.

FITEQ has pledged to run a social media campaign to share the #OneHumanity message with its followers, who number more than four million.

It will also produce dedicated education materials which will be shared with players, officials and fans, as well as at FITEQ events and at the Teqball Roadshow.

"We are proud to team up with the UNAOC on this critically important campaign," said Gergely Murányi, FITEQ's head of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and diplomatic relations.


"Sport unifies the world by bringing people from different nations, cultures, religions and backgrounds together through a shared passion. 

"There are very few things that can do this so effectively. 

"At FITEQ, we understand the power of sport in fostering peace and understanding and we embrace our role as the leaders of teqball in this regard. 

"Promoting equal opportunity has always been one of our key objectives and our recently launched Table of Peace global CSR programme is helping us on this journey. 

"Working in partnership with the UNAOC will not only allow us to support their amazing work, it will also teach us valuable lessons and principles that we can apply to our own campaigns."

FITEQ is a full member of the Global Association of International Sports Federations, which also supports the #OneHumanity campaign.
