The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has made amendments to the Olympic Charter to strengthen its human rights commitments during its 141st Session. These changes include additional wording in the Fundamental Principles of Olympism.
They aim to promote and respect human rights across their three spheres of activity: as an organization, as the owner of the Olympic Games, and as the leader of the Olympic Movement.
Additionally, the IOC’s Framework on Fairness, Inclusion, and Non-Discrimination aims to ensure inclusion in elite sports without discrimination based on gender identity or sex variations while preserving fair competition.
