Panathlon International is the association of all “Panathlon Clubs”, essentially based on the voluntary work of its Club members. Panathlon is an International Movement for the promotion and dissemination of culture and sporting ethics, according to the official recognition of the IOC, and it aims to deepen, promote and defend the values of sport as a tool for training and enhancing the individual and as a vehicle of solidarity between people and communities around the world. The word “Panathlon” is of Greek origin, and can be translated with “group of sport disciplines” and its motto “Ludis Iungit” means “united by sport”.
