# Sport Diplomacy
Sport is a soft power tool often used to build or re-open bridges between nations and support foreign policy objectives like peace promotion and facilitation of cultural exchanges.
“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.”
– Nelson Mandela –
Nobel Peace Prize Winner, 1993
