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.

The world is connected by colors.

Just as the colored budo belts prove their expressiveness in martial arts, so too will 2020, the Olympic rings that welcome the world to fair and exciting games. Its 6 colors correspond to those of all national flags of today's world. In 1920 - exactly 100 years ago, the now legendary flag was used for the first time. Participation in the Olympics was a major objective of the WKF in recent years. The great commitment to present karate to the world as an Olympic discipline is finally rewarded. The competitions will be held in the KUMITE and KATA styles and, of course, will also be supervised by the WKF in Tokyo.
