The Olympic Solidarity Commission is particularly appreciative of the progress made in implementing the World and Continental Programmes, and wishes to highlight the good results obtained thanks to the process of decentralising funds, the con- solidation of which is set to continue during the next phase starting in 2005. The decisive contribution from the Continental Associations and their National Olympic Committees should be noted in this regard. The increase in the number of activities has been matched by an increase in the quality and effectiveness of the work undertaken under the auspices of Olympic © IOC Olympic Museum Collections/Locatelli Solidarity; a strengthening of structures at continental level; and stricter control of the funds allocated to the various programmes. The constant attention and care we devote to the use made of our financial resources will continue to be a priority objective for us. Olympic Solidarity has received valuable information on the key interests and needs of the NOCs – its raison d'être – and is now in a position to study what measures to take to ensure that this tool for helping the NOCs – an important, necessary and fair one, which is often essential to their livelihoods – fulfils the function for which it was created more effectively. I firmly believe that, with the means available, we can expand our activities and improve the quality of them. After a busy year with pleasing results, I feel it only right to recognise, on behalf of the Olympic Solidarity Commission, the remarkable work done by the NOCs, the Continental Associations and the Olympic Solidarity team. Unity of action, a sense of responsibility and the constant desire to address every concern have characterised the work of the Commission and those responsible for implementing the Olympic Solidarity programmes. I thank them for their support and invite them, in 2004, to work even harder on improv- ing our results and developing a programme for the 2005-2008 period which will best meet the NOCs’ expectations. Sincerely, Mario VÁZQUEZ RAÑA Chairman of the Olympic Solidarity Commission Olympic Solidarity Olympic Solidarity, established in 1971, is responsible for admin- Olympic Games istering and managing the funding derived from the share of the television rights for the broadcasting of the Olympic Games Athletes TV rights which is allocated to the National Olympic Committees (NOCs). This funding is distributed among several programmes, established for the development of sport and intended for the NOCs and their NOCs Olympic Solidarity Continental Associations, according to their needs and priorities. All of these programmes are managed as part of a four-year plan. World / Continental Programmes The programmes adopted by Olympic Solidarity for the 2001-2004 quadrennial plan – 21 World Programmes and 5 Continental Programmes – cover a wide range of fields. The World Programmes offered to the NOCs, 9 of which are completely new in relation to the previous plan, are divided into four areas – athletes, coaches, NOC management and special fields. The Continental Programmes are an important addition and give greater autonomy to the Continental Associations, which are responsible for the decision- making and financial management of these programmes. This implies a transfer of responsibility from Olympic Solidarity to the continents. Olympic scholarship holders in canoe-kayak (Slovakia) 4 5 2003: decentralisation pays off 2003 was certainly a very busy year in terms of participation in and maximum benefit from all the programmes. We noted a significant increase in the number of activities proposed and organised by the National Olympic Committees (NOCs). There are several reasons for this increase. Firstly, we have just completed the third year of the 2001-2004 quadrennial plan. The NOCs have understood and adopted the concept of decentralisation which, we should remember, is based firstly on world programmes managed directly by Olympic Solidarity in Lausanne and available to all NOCs recog- nised by the IOC and secondly, on continental programmes specific to each continent and managed by the Continental Associations of NOCs. Secondly, cooperation between Olympic Solidarity and the Continental Associations, aimed at ensuring total, con- stant coordination, has been firmly established and is proving highly effective on a daily basis. Finally, our presence at meetings organised by the Continental Associations in 2003, particularly the seminars of the Secretaries General and the General Assemblies, continues to offer a unique opportunity both for Olympic Solidarity and for the National Olympic Committees to hold individual meet- ings and to adopt policies and strategies fostering maximum use of the programmes available. In this context, we are delighted to report that more than 3,500 individual applications were dealt with in 2003 across the whole range of programmes. These results confirm that the objective of ensuring the smooth running of the programmes approved for the 2001-2004 period has been achieved. Communication: staying in touch One essential factor behind the success of these programmes is undoubtedly the optimal transmission of information, effective communication and permanent contact with our partners and beneficiaries. To this end, we have continued throughout the year to use the different tools at our disposal – our Internet site on the IOC website www.olympic.org; the NOC Extranet www.cno-noc.olympic.org; regular mailings; the annual report; the IOC Olympic Review and; of course, we have also benefited from attending seminars and world conferences where we have distributed up-to-date information and held individual meetings. 1st National Forum on Women and Sport (Guinea), intervention from participant Olympic Solidarity During 2003, as in previous years, Olympic Solidarity was able to count on the help of numerous partners to run the various programmes organised for the NOCs: The Continental Associations stepped up their close collaboration as a result of the decentralisation process which started at the beginning of the 2001-2004 quadrennial plan. Their technical departments have taken active steps to ensure that the Olympic Solidarity programmes can be used in a way which takes into account the specific needs of each continent. The International Olympic Federations (IFs), which govern the sports that form part of the Olympic Games programme, provided expertise and advice on the implementation of the Olympic Solidarity programmes, such as the technical courses and the scholarship programmes for athletes and Olympic Solidarity coaches.

See Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) section 203(b)(l)(A), 8 U.S.C. § l 153(b)(l)(A). This first preference classification makes immigrant visas available to those who can demonstrate their extraordinary ability through sustained national or international acclaim and whose achievements have been recognized in their field through extensive documentation. The Director of the Nebraska Service Center denied the petition, concluding that the record did not establish that the Petitioner met the initial evidence requirements through receipt of a major, internationally recognized award or meeting three of the evidentiary criteria at 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(h)(3). In these proceedings, it is the Petitioner's burden to establish eligibility for the requested benefit. See Section 291 of the Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1361. Upon de nova review, we will dismiss the appeal. I. LAW Section 203(b)(l) of the Act makes visas available to immigrants with extraordinary ability if: (i) the alien has extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics which has been demonstrated by sustained national or international acclaim and whose achievements have been recognized in the field through extensive documentation, (ii) the alien seeks to enter the United States to continue work in the area of extraordinary ability, and (iii) the alien's entry into the United States will substantially benefit prospectively the United States.
