International Ambassador of the Forum


Gianluca Zambrotta: "Hello everybody. I am very proud that I was invited to the event as an ambassador. Young people have a special role in all spheres of life. I got a big success in my life during youth ages. As a player, the greatest success in my life is the World Championship in 2006, and I was young in comparison to this day. We achieved this success as a team by uniting around a single goal. Volunteering is part of it, to act together and to go to one goal is very important. Today, in every football game volunteers take special importance. I hope, this forum will be very helpful in terms of directing the activities of the volunteers in the future".
