Sports

Sport has been a dominant part of life for Princess Haya since childhood. Having experienced the power of sport in Her own life, She works tirelessly to give others, especially young girls, a similar experience. Her work as President of the International Equestrian Federation (FEI) and as a member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is motivated by the belief that sport improves lives, empowers women, and breaks down barriers between people and nations. Her experience with sport also influences Her humanitarian efforts and Her work as a UN Messenger of Peace. She has worked closely with the UN’s Sport for Development and Peace programme to use sport to improve the lives of refugees and impoverished youths.
