Chefs de Mission Manual Nanjing 2014 Summer Youth Olympic Games July 2014 Welcome Message from NYOGOC President Dear Chefs de Mission, The 2nd Summer Youth Olympic Games will open in Nanjing, China, on 16 August 2014. On behalf of the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games Organising Committee (NYOGOC), I would like to extend my sincere greetings to all the National Olympic Committees (NOCs) and offer you this Chefs de Mission Manual for Nanjing 2014 Summer Youth Olympic Games. With the invaluable guidance of both the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the International Federations (IFs), and the great support of the NOCs, we have sought to put forward such concepts as youth and vigour, participation and sharing, cultural diversity and integration, wisdom and creativity, green energy and low-carbon emissions and safety and integrity, involving young people by giving them leading roles, and highlighting the importance of culture and education. Our aim is to stage a spectacular, high-quality event, which will encourage young people from around the world to “Share the Games, Share their Dreams”. As organiser of this global event, NYOGOC made the most of events such as the Chefs de Mission Seminar to listen to suggestions from NOCs and integrate them into the Chefs de Mission Manual, which compiles essential Games-related information, and policies and procedures in order to assist NOCs and to ensure their stay in Nanjing is both a pleasant and memorable one. Welcome to Nanjing! We hope our provision of top-quality facilities and an eco-friendly environment will guarantee the best services to young athletes and NOCs alike.
