00:00Some of the biggest names in sports are gathering in Dubai this week for the inaugural World Sports Summit.
00:05The two-day event brings together current and former athletes, industry experts and decision makers
00:10to promote sports as a positive force that transcends borders.
00:15Placé sous le thème « Unir le monde par le sport », le sommet a attiré plus de 1500 participants originaires de plus de 80 pays.
00:23Des champions du monde aux dirigeants sportifs en passant par des responsables politiques,
00:27l'objectif va bien au-delà de ce qu'il se passe sur le terrain.
00:30Tout en célébrant les grandes performances athlétiques, le sommet a également abordé
00:58le côté négatif du sport avec l'impact sur la santé mentale, la pression publique intense
01:03et le fait d'être éloigné de ses proches pendant de longues périodes.
01:07Many people might not really assess how important this is and when the athletes and you've seen the names today,
01:15you've seen the level of athletes that we had, the level of validation and comfort they had
01:21that we have really opened up to discuss these points was amazing to hear and for them to be part of those conversations.
01:28It's a beautiful, beautiful event here in Dubai, bringing together, gathering really the best of the best in the sports world.
01:38Of course I represent football, which is the best sport anyway, but even just the football legends who are here,
01:46world champions, not just the administrator, but these legends, they make the hearts beat in football,
01:52but also all the others who are here from the other sports.
01:56As global sport continues to grow and evolve, Dubai is positioning itself as a place where those conversations can happen,
02:03inspiring future generations and bringing the world together through sport.
