OLYMPIC
VALUES Olympic Solidarity, founded in 1961, is the body responsible for managing
and administering the share of the TV rights of the Olympic Games that is
allocated to the National Olympic Committees (NOCs). It exercises this responsibility in accordance with
the specific programmes of technical financial assistance approved by the
Olympic Solidarity Commission. It assists NOCs with the efforts for the
development of sport through programmes carefully devised to match their
specific needs and priorities.
"The aim of Olympic Solidarity is to organise aid to NOCs recognised by
the International Olympic Committee (IOC), in particular those which have
the greatest need of it. This air takes the form of programmes
elaborated jointly by the IOC and the NOCs, with the technical assistance of
the International Federations (IFs), if necessary." Olympic Solidarity reflects the Olympic ethic of which the basic notions are generosity, understanding and international cooperation, cultural exchanges, the development of sport and its educational aspects and the promotion of a society concerned with human dignity and peace.
THE OLYMPIC SOLIDARITY During the 2005-2008 quadrennial, Olympic Solidarity will offer three methods to access financial and technical assistance:
