BAKU 2023 WORLD TAEKWONDO CHAMPIONSHIPS

Dear colleagues,

On the occasion of the 50th Founding Anniversary of World Taekwondo, I have the pleasure to
invite you to Baku, Azerbaijan, for the World Taekwondo Championships and Golden Jubilee
Gala Awards!

The 26th edition of the World Taekwondo Championships taking place from May 29th to June 4th
will be truly historic, as we commemorate the amazing achievements that we have worked so
hard together for over the past 50 years. I wish to thank President Kamaladdin Heydarov and
the Azerbaijan Taekwondo Federation for your generous support.

At the Golden Jubilee Gala Awards on May 27th, World Taekwondo will honour the founding
Member National Associations that took part in the inaugural General Assembly on May 28,
1973. In addition, World Taekwondo will honour 12 Olympians and two Paralympians who will
be crowned as the best male and female athletes of each Olympic Games since Sydney 2000.

The Council Meeting and General Assembly will take place on May 28th, which coincidentally
falls on the 105th Independence Day of the Republic of Azerbaijan. World Taekwondo is
privileged to be able to celebrate our Golden Jubilee on such an important occasion.

The World Taekwondo Championships in Baku will be a key milestone in every athlete’s journey
to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. In this regard, I believe that the Taekwondo family will be
treated to the highest levels of technical execution, dynamism and passion throughout the
Championships.

Thank you and I look forward to welcoming you in Baku.

Sincerely yours,

Chungwon Choue
President
