DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SPORT

Girls at a school in Bamyan (central Afghanistan) enjoyed playing with a volleyball.
IOC support to disadvantaged communities through sportOne of the IOC’s missions is to promote the Olympic values in order to place sport at the service of the harmonious development of our society. The IOC has thus developed a comprehensive programme using sports development as a tool for local socio-economic and human development in cooperation with UN agencies and other organisations specialised in development and humanitarian aid and National Olympic Committees. The following projects in Costa Rica, Cambodia and Afghanistan truly underline this strong commitment by the IOC to improve the lives of under-privileged communities worldwide.
