In a unanimous decision at the 39th FIVB World Congress, Fabio Azevedo has been elected as the new President of the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB), heralding a thrilling new chapter for the sport worldwide. Azevedo unveiled his Strategic Vision 2024-2032, aiming to elevate volleyball’s professional standards and double its global fanbase of 800 million through enhanced engagement and mass participation.
