Development dream comes true for Afghanistan

The development programmes UIPM runs world-wide is well-known and Afghanistan is a testament to how much can be achieved in a relatively short space of time with focused work. Around 180 pentathletes, 60 female and 120 male, were selected from the program with the ultimate dream to participate in international modern pentathlon competitions. The country also reports an increasing interest of media with a remarkable coverage during the three-day seminar that took place from 23 to 25 December in the National Olympic Committee Conference Hall.
