The 关键字1Pakistan Judo Federation is honored to announce the visit of Miss Sabrina Filzmoser — four-time Olympian, World Judo Medalist, Chair of the World Judo Athletes Commission, and Climate Ambassador of the International Judo Federation (IJF) — to Pakistan as part of the IJF's globally celebrated "Judo for Peace" initiative.

Filzmoser will arrive in Karachi on the morning of 21st May 2025. Her peace-themed journey will commence on 22nd May 2025 with a symbolic cycling departure from Sea View, Karachi, covering a challenging route across Pakistan to Skardu and onward to the K2 Base Camp, from where she plans to begin her ascent of K2, the world's second-highest mountain.

This extraordinary expedition merges sport with environmental advocacy, gender empowerment, and peace-building, reinforcing the message that Judo a Japanese sport—meaning "the gentle way"— promotes discipline, respect, and harmony rather than violence. In the wake of recent regional tensions, her timely mission carries greater relevance as a gesture of peace and unity.

Filzmoser is no stranger to such courageous undertakings. In 2023, she cycled from Islamabad to K2 Base Camp-II, and in 2022, she completed a journey from the coastline to Everest Base Camp, eventually summiting Mount Everest with the "Judo for Peace" banner.

Despite the intense heat of Sindh and Punjab, she is committed to her mission, underscoring her message of peace through perseverance. As the honorary Brand Ambassador of Takbeer Judo Club since 2023, she is also a strong advocate for female empowerment through self-defense training.

During her journey, Filzmoser will visit various Judo clubs along the route to identify young talent and will meet with officials from the Pakistan Olympic Association and the Pakistan Sports Board in Islamabad.

President Pakistan Judo Federation and national Judo Fraternity extends heartfelt gratitude to Filzmoser for choosing Pakistan for this cause and wishes her success in her inspiring, seemingly inconceivable journey in this scorching heat that exemplifies courage, unity, and peace through sport.
