Football is more than just a game. It brings people together, builds peace, and connects different cultures. One woman is leading this powerful mission: Rani Vanouska T. Modely, also known as “The Mother Teresa of Football.”

She started a global movement called “One Ball, One World” to show that football can be a force for good. With her organization Omnia, she’s working to have football officially recognized by UNESCO as part of the world’s cultural heritage.

What Is “One Ball, One World”?

This project is supported by all 211 FIFA member countries. It’s not just about the sport—it’s about what football means to people everywhere.

Goals of the Movement:

1. Bring nations together

2. Promote peace through sport

3. Celebrate football as a shared culture

4. Inspire children and future generations

By working with world leaders, football stars, and famous thinkers, Rani Vanouska is showing how football can make a real difference in the world.

The OMNIA Pledge: A Call for Global Unity

To help grow this movement, Rani Vanouska created the OMNIA Pledge—a promise by leaders, governments, and organizations to support football’s role in world peace and culture.

What Does the OMNIA Pledge Do?

1. Encourages leaders to support football’s cultural value

2. Promotes unity and peace

3. Helps protect football’s history for future generations

It’s more than a campaign—it’s a way to get the whole world involved in something meaningful.

Football Meets Art, Luxury, and Culture

Rani Vanouska is also changing how people see football. Through her company Omnia Sport, she combines football with fashion, art, and luxury.

She works with well-known names like:

1. Arsène Wenger (football coach)

2. Simon de Pury (art expert)

3. Jacques Séguéla (creative advisor)

Together, they created the Omniaball—a beautiful collector’s item that turns a football into a work of art. It shows how football can be both stylish and meaningful.

A Royal Heritage with a Modern Mission

Rani Vanouska comes from a royal family in India, linked to the Chauhan dynasty and other noble houses. Her background helps shape her values: leadership, culture, and giving back.

Even though she has a royal past, her focus is on the future—bringing people together and using football to make the world better.

Recognizing Football’s Leaders with Forbes

To highlight those changing football for the better, Rani Vanouska teamed up with Forbes to create the Top 100 Football World Leaders list. This group includes:

1. Sports leaders

2. Heads of state

3. Business influencers

4. Culture champions

These leaders are part of the growing team supporting football as a tool for good.

A Legacy Beyond the Game

Through the OMNIA Pledge and One Ball, One World, Rani Vanouska T. Modely is doing something truly special. She’s not just promoting a sport—she’s building a legacy.
