ITF Executive Meeting

Intensive Meeting of ITF Executive Committee in Warsaw
The ITF Executive Committee meets weekly to discuss the daily issues of the International Taekwon-Do Federation. It consists of the President, Grand Master Paul Weiler, the Senior Vice President, Grand Master Clint Norman, the Vice President, Master Annick Van Driessche, and the Treasurer, Master Leonardo Oros Duek.
Since the elections in September 2023 in Finland the Executive Committee and the Secretary General, Master Tadeusz Loboda, were meeting every Monday evening for about one and a half to two hours.
About half a year later, on March 4 and 5, 2024, the Executive Committee, together with the Secretary General and the ITF legal counselor Efraim Barak, had an intensive two-day, face-to-face workshop in Warsaw, Poland. For two days, the committee had meetings to discuss, initiate, and progress current topics. In addition, the next level of ITF policies and further steps for the future of ITF were addressed.
The near future will show clear impact resulting from this meeting. Stay tuned.
