WKF - an umbrella organization with big goals.

Being there is everything - the Olympic idea of the WKF. With around 10 million members in 188 countries, the WKF - World Map Federation - is acting as an umbrella organization for all karatekas. Its founding date back to 1993, when WKO (World Union of Karate-Do Organizations) and ITKF (International Traditional Karate Federation) merged to form today's WKF.

Every 2 years, the umbrella organization organizes the Karate World Championships and supports the athletes with innovations - the main focus is always on increasing safety. But of course you are looking for more - you are looking for Olympia. The highest award of any sport is the inclusion by the IOC (International Olympic Committee). In Tokyo 2020, Karate is represented by the WKF and can present itself to the world among 33 different sports and over 51 disciplines.

Safety first - the top credo of the umbrella organization.
