Let us join in the IOC's Let's Move Campaign

Let’s Move is an ongoing initiative spearheaded by the IOC that aims to inspire people to move more every day, anyhow, anywhere. Let’s Move is part of the Olympic Movement’s mission to make the world a better place through sport, setting out to highlight the positive impact that sport and fitness have on physical and mental health.

Launched on Olympic Day 2023 in collaboration with WHO, over 15 million people worldwide were engaged in getting physically active on Olympic Day, with the help of over 1000 athletes and over 200 Olympic  movement stakeholders. It directly contributes to the Olympism365 strategy which is focused on ensuring that more people, from more diverse backgrounds, can enjoy the mental and physical health benefits of participating in sport and physical activity. 

The importance of this mission was underscored by research published by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Allianz in 2023 highlighting that although young people recognise the benefits of sport and physical activity for their physical and mental health, including improved self-esteem, social skills and cognitive function, less than 20% are physically active for five or more hours a week due to barriers like having other responsibilities lack of time, and limited opportunities.

You are encouraged to share to how you are getting active on Olympic Day on social media using #LetsMove #OlympicDay #Olympism365 and tagging @Olympics.
