One World. One Future.
The FADAM Vision
FADAM (Federation of the Future of Martial Arts) is an international organization aiming to unite all martial arts, combat sports, and human communities around the values of peace, development, and living together. It achieves this through the organization of the FADAM World Games (the world's largest open competition for martial arts and combat sports) and numerous concrete actions in the sporting, cultural, economic, social, and educational spheres.
