US Olympic fencing medalist Ibtihaj Muhammad made history as the first American Muslim woman to wear a hijab in Olympic competition. Now in Doha as an ambassador for Qatar Foundation’s Creating Pathways programme, she’s helping young girls discover confidence, courage, and purpose through her sport.
Euronews correspondent Aadel Haleem sat down with Muhammad to talk about how sport can empower the next generation of girls and why, as she puts it, “I love that sport gave me the opportunity to be myself.”
