Olympic Solidarity

Olympic Solidarity is the organ within the IOC which is responsible for administering and managing the NOCs’ share of the broadcast rights from the Olympic Games. It redistributes these funds through diverse programmes according to the needs and priorities of the NOCs and their Continental Associations.
