What is Olympic Solidarity?

Olympic Solidarity is one of the International Olympic Committee (IOC)’s commissions. Its job is to organise the assistance the IOC gives to the National Olympic Committees (NOCs) to help them develop sport in their respective countries.

Through Olympic Solidarity, athletes can benefit from the “Olympic scholarships for athletes” programme, which allocates subsidies enabling athletes to train and qualify for the Olympic Games.
