A proposito di questo titolo

 The Olympic Games is once again bringing sport to global attention as the finest athletes from across the world come together to compete on behalf of their nations. A number of athletes, however, will again compete for the IOC Refugee Olympic Team, representing more than a 100 million displaced people worldwide. What are the personal stories of these athletes? What does their participation symbolise for the millions of refugees worldwide? How does it shape our views of refugees? What’s the role of sport in supporting the wellbeing of refugees – especially displaced youth - across the globe.
