Following our Annual Trustee Meeting, that took place after the World Football Summit in Madrid, AccessibAll is proud to announce the appointment of Dominique Blanc as our new AccessibAll Global Advocate.

Dominique brings unparalleled expertise from his distinguished career in football governance. As former President of the Swiss Football Association (SFA), he championed integrity, diversity, and accessibility at the heart of Swiss football.

Alongside this role, Dominique has been active in several UEFA committees, where he has contributed to advancing inclusion, sustainability, and innovation across European football. His leadership experience at both national and continental levels makes him uniquely positioned to guide AccessibAll in its mission to ensure that sport and live events are accessible to all.

In his own words, Dominique said, "Accessibility is not an add-on — it is the foundation of a modern, inclusive game. As AccessibAll Global Advocate, my priority is to ensure that every club, federation, and venue understands that inclusion strengthens communities, drives innovation, and secures football’s future — both on the pitch and in the stands".

As AccessibAll Global Advocate, Dominique will contribute his strategic insight and governance experience to strengthen AccessibAll’s work in:

• Stadium and venue accessibility
• Assistive technology and fan experience innovation
• Inclusive workforce pathways
• Policy and legal advisory, aligned with the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and global ESG goals 

"We are honoured to welcome Dominique Blanc as our Global Advocate of AccessibAll. Guided by deeply human values and a genuine commitment to inclusion, Dominique embodies a vision of leadership that transcends the boundaries of sport. In a world where dialogue tends to fade and individuals withdraw, he brings the energy, clarity, and conviction needed to awaken the potential within each of us. Having his support and contribution within AccessibAll is a true privilege, and a promise of a future that is more accessible, fair, and inspiring for all"
- Olivier Jarosz, AccessibAll CEO

With Dominique’s guidance, AccessibAll is poised to expand its global reach and continue turning accessibility into a strategic advantage for clubs, federations, and fans worldwide.

We are delighted to welcome Dominique to the AccessibAll family and look forward to shaping the future of accessibility together.
