AMBASSADORS

On the photo the three ambassadors: Jean-Jacques Westerlund, Ivan Denis and Kate Ryan. Ambassadors are highly important when it comes to getting the worldOutgames better known. For this reason the worldOutgames have selected three extra-special ambassadors. It is the ambassadors' job to spread far and wide the message of what the worldOutgames stand for. And in doing so, to open up the situation regarding global gay rights as a topic of discussion. It is partly because the ambassadors are so diverse that they are capable of gaining the attention of a really wide audience. The first ambassador the worldOutgames was able to welcome was Kate Ryan. She is symbolic of the pop culture and in this regard she will also be writing a song for the Opening Ceremony. As second ambassador Jean-Jacques Westerlund came on board. A well-known Antwerp businessman and a great supporter of the rights

of gays, lesbians and bisexuals as seen from a hetero point of view. And as last the archery world champion, Ivan Denis. He serves in the military, is a great sportsman and has come out for his orientation in the face of all pressures to the contrary.
