FIBA Foundation We use the power of Basketball to initiate positive change

The FIBA Foundation was founded in 2008 by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA). The Foundation addresses the role of sports, in particular Basketball, in the fields of community building, education, health and well-being, as well as conflict resolution. The Foundation promotes the values and cultural heritage of Basketball as a vector for change and develops inclusive programs to tackle pressing issues that affect children and youth in the concerned communities. The programs are initiated by the Foundation and implemented in partnership with FIBA’s member federations, local NGOs and partners with the aim of supporting collaboration between local actors and to drive economic growth in the relevant region.

🧠🏀 Mental health is part of the game.

On , we’re shining a light on Omnivers , a project helping young athletes in North Macedonia build mental resilience both on and off the court.

Through athlete-centred workshops, inspiring conversations, and powerful stories shared by players, captains, and referees, the initiative created a safe space to discuss the psychological challenges athletes face. 💬

Because performance isn’t only physical. Mental well-being, confidence, recovery, and support all play a role in helping athletes thrive. 💙

The magic of basketball goes far beyond the game ❤️

At the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup 2026, the Basketball For Good Little Champions Program gave 432 girls a once-in-a-lifetime experience. 🏀

Walking alongside world-class players, hearing the crowd roar, and feeling they belong in basketball. Moments like these can inspire dreams for years to come. ✨

Just as Iyana Martin said, these are the kinds of memories that stay with you forever. 🌟
