A model of courage, resilience and determination.
29 athletes formed the IOC Refugee Olympic Team at Tokyo 2020, capturing our hearts and sending a message of solidarity to all the refugees worldwide.
They had to leave everything behind, they had to overcome the worst, their paths were full of obstacles.
Together, they formed the IOC #RefugeeOlympicTeam#Tokyo2020.
You are a true inspiration for the world. Thank you.
