Life will never be the same, I cannot fall back to someone weak, because strength and certainty have been instilled into my mindset through hours and hours of working on my craft.
I am proud of what I am, even if I am far from complete in any way, my life has become an adventure, filled with growth.
My name is Dimitra Magkanoudaki.
I started fencing in 1990 and stopped in 2008 . I participated in the 2004 Olympic Games where they took place in my country Greece, where with my team we won the 8th place in epee. Now I am a coach for young children and my purpose is to transfer all my knowledge, experiences and my love for this sport!

Judo for Peace is an initiative of International Judo Federation. In 2015, we initiated a programme in Kilis within the refugee camp nearby. Throughout the year, the programme grew and reached new levels. Now that the camp is closed, we are still working with refugees in Kilis and over the border.
I want to spread awareness through campaigns, and for a law to be passed, making the physical education for girls in non-prestigious schools obligatory. Sports require efficient facilities, which Pakistan lacks. So, investing in the development of facilities must be encouraged and given utmost importance.
