Ninety-four delegates (thirty-one women and sixty-three men) from seventy-one countries participated in the Session. Sixteen women and sixty men participated respectively four years ago, and this means that the women’s participation representing NOAs in the IOA’s Sessions has been doubled today and it is constantly being increased. During the Session lectures were delivered by the following specialists on the Olympic Movement and Physical Education and Sport: Prof. Hai Ren from China, Mrs Zdenka Letenayova from Slovakia, Mr Marius Francisco from Benin, Mrs Dimitra Koutsouki from Greece, Dr Silvio Rafael from Portugal and Dr Kostas Georgiadis from Greece. Three of the lecturers were officials of active NOAs, who were invited to present their point of view on organisation and administration matters within an NOA, emphasising on practical issues regarding the Olympic Education Programmes, the structure, operation and aims of National Olympic Academies. In addition, twenty-three National Olympic Academies presented a brief report on their activities during the previous year and their plans for the following period. For the sixth consecutive year, the Session was broadcasted live through the Internet, giving the possibility to hundreds of officials – 15 – and researchers from various parts of the world to follow the works of the Session. The participants were divided into 8 discussion groups, 7 English- speaking and 1 French-speaking. Under the guidance of their coordinators, the participants discussed on the status of the NOAs, the creation and the operation of an NOAs’ network, the relationship between the NOAs and the Olympic Studies Centres, as well as on the need a Master’s Programme within the IOA activities etc. The conclusions of the discussion groups are proved to be valuable for the better operation of an NOA and the better cooperation among the NOAs and between the NOAs and the IOA.
