IOCYL programme

The IOC Young Leaders program, launched in 2016, enables young talent to harness the power of sport to make a positive difference in their communities.

In the four-year period from 2021-2024, the program sees 25 young leaders envision, design and implement their own sustainable sports-based social enterprise. IOC Young Leaders are also supported in developing their capacity as the young leaders of tomorrow’s sporting world.

The founding partner of the IOC Young Leaders program is Panasonic and the delivery partner is Yunus Sport Hub.
