Every year, the International Judo Federation and the judo community celebrate World Judo Day on 28th October. This day represents a lot for all the judo fans around the world as it is the birthday of the founder of judo, Jigoro Kano Shihan. For each edition a theme is chosen to illustrate the values of judo. This theme is designed to be used as a strong tool to develop the visibility of the sport within and outside of the judo family. In 2024, the theme is: WELLBEING.
