The World Football Summit Podcast E2: The power of football to change the world with Prof. Muhammad Yunus
Nobel Peace Prize, Professor Muhammad Yunus is the father of the social business and the microcredits movements. Over the last 40 years, Prof. Yunus has created a large network of experts, now present in over 150 countries, helping to solve social issues and improving the lives of millions of people through social business.
In 2018, he created the Yunus Sports Hub to put this network at the service of the sports sector and help governance bodies, right holders, event organizers, federations, clubs, and other sports-related organizations create meaningful changes in people’s lives. For all of this, he received the Olympic Laurel at the Opening Ceremony of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
In this exclusive conversation with WFS Digest, he shares the importance of football in the lives of many people around the world and how athletes, clubs and any individual can use it as a tool to make a difference in society.
The best thing is that Prof. Yunus is a confirmed speaker for WFS Europe, so you can expect to hear more inspiring messages from him there! If you haven`t done so already, head over to our website and buy your ticket so you can join us either in person or virtually!
