Michaël Jérémiasz, Marilyn Mertz

Former world number one wheelchair tennis player and 2024 Paris Olympic Games ambassador Michael Jeremias leverages his personal journey from a snowboarding-induced spinal cord injury to championing universal accessibility and systemic inclusion. Drawing on his experience as a two-time Paralympic medalist and his observations of media representation gaps, he advocates for a societal shift where disability is treated as a common human issue rather than a niche concern. Jeremias combines his athletic credentials with recent life reflections from the pandemic to promote a future where diversity is naturally integrated into infrastructure and culture.
