At the recent Summit of the Future, International Olympic Committee (IOC) President expressed gratitude to world leaders for their commitment to integrating sport into the United Nations' Pact for the Future. This pivotal agreement emphasizes the importance of sport in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Central to the Pact is the Declaration on Future Generations, in which UN Member States pledge to “invest in accessible, safe, inclusive, and equitable quality education for all, including physical education and sport.” The declaration promotes lifelong learning, technical and vocational training, and digital literacy, aiming to ensure the intergenerational transfer of knowledge and skills to empower future generations. The inclusion of sport in this historic pact marks another significant achievement in the IOC’s collaboration with the UN. The IOC has maintained a status of Permanent Observer at the UN, further solidifying its role in global discussions on sustainable development. This partnership reached a landmark moment in 2015 when the UN officially recognized sport as an “important enabler” of sustainable development, incorporating it into the UN’s Agenda 2030. As nations unite to address pressing global challenges, the recognition of sport as a critical component of education and development serves as a testament to its potential in fostering inclusive and equitable societies. The IOC remains committed to leveraging the power of sport to drive positive change and ensure a better future for all.
