BWF — Badminton World Federation
The Galli Badminton – Badminton for All, From Galli to Glory initiative demonstrated how badminton can transcend sporting boundaries to become a true catalyst for inclusion, heritage celebration, and community pride. By bringing people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds together in UNESCO World Heritage Site Bhaktapur’s traditional alley, the event embodied the universal spirit of the BWF’s mission to make badminton accessible and joyful for everyone. Its success shows that powerful grassroots movements can transform ordinary spaces into extraordinary experiences, inspiring positive change and promoting lifelong healthy activity. We believe this event serves as a compelling and worthy model of badminton’s potential to connect and uplift communities around the world.
