  1. Most importantly, the Declaration that was unanimously adopted at the end of the conference led to the adoption of the UN General Assembly Resolution on Friday, August 23, 2013, that proclaimed April 6 each year as the Intl. Day of Sports. Very fine work by my friend Noema Chaplin in this article. Richard Jordan, Chairman, NGO Committee on the UN and Sports
