The Jordanian Athletes Forum 2023 concluded on Saturday evening, organised by the Athletes Committee of the Jordan Olympic Committee, with the attendance of athletes representing all national sports federations.
The forum featured several dialogue sessions related to athletes and their careers, led by experts in the field.
This initiative is part of the efforts of both the Athletes Committee and the JOC to support and empower Jordanian athletes throughout their sports careers.
The forum covered various topics, including an introduction to the JOC and sports federations, the role of the Athletes Committee, programmes endorsed by the International Olympic Committee, sports nutrition, clean sport, sports injuries, mental health in sport, and social responsibility.
It aimed to raise the image of athletes beyond competitive events.
