"Our philosophy precedes from the belief that sport is an inalienable part of the educational process..." — Juan Antonio Samaranch

Olympism is the marriage of sport and culture.

We peruse one ideal, that of bringing people together in peace, irrespective of race, religion and political convictions, for the benefit of mankind.

Throughout its history, the international Olympic Committee has struggled to spread its ideal of fraternity, friendship, peace and universal understanding.
