PLEASE HELP ME IMPROVE WOMEN’S CHESS IN THE WORLD!
Hello all!
The FIDE 80th Annual Congress will be held in the period from October 11th to 18th in Kallithea, Halkidiki, Greece. I am a member of the FIDE Presidential Board and so I have been invited to participate.
During this Congress many important meetings will take place. The chairmen and the members of each commission will meet and discuss the ways to work and to cooperate in the future (to see the schedule of these meetings click on the image below).
One of these commission is the Commission for Women’s Chess (WOM). As I am the co-chairman of this commission I’d like to make sure that we discuss and go over the main issues in women’s chess in order to make it more popular and better for women’s chess players. For that I will need help from all of you. If you have any questions, ideas, projects on women’s chess and you want these ideas to be discussed in the following Congress please let me know either my writing an email, or leaving a comment in this post, you can also leave me a message in Facebook or Twitter.
I believe that if we work together, we can do a lot of good things for chess in general and for women’s chess in particular.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
