World Special Olympics 2019
The United Arab Emirates will be the first MENA country to ever host the Special Olympics World Games—a humanitarian and sports event for people of determination with intellectual disabilities. These Games will mark the 50-year history of Special Olympics movement as the most unified with a record-breaking participation from all over the globe. In these Games, athletes of determination will not only be competing for gold, but also shattering perceptions and redefining what it means to be truly determined.
