The World Ethnosport Confederation (WEC) is an international institution dedicated to increasing awareness of traditional sports and games. Established in 2015 and based in Istanbul, WEC aims to preserve, perform, and maintain these activities by providing support and creating an umbrella organization. The Confederation's priorities include bringing traditional sports under a single institutional roof, fostering unity among member federations, and expanding the Ethnosport understanding.

WEC's mission is to universalize traditional sports and the associated cultures, transmitting the values accumulated throughout history to future generations. Through sportive and cultural activities, Ethnosports transfer elements such as hunting techniques, combat, clothing, and food culture from the past. WEC's vision is to become an internationally recognized authority, promoting solidarity in competition, peace in fun, and the preservation of past traditions for a better future.

By developing innovative strategies, WEC seeks to regulate, popularize, and professionalize traditional sports and games, fighting inequality in cultural and sportive opportunities. Contact WEC for more information about their activities and initiatives
