THE IOA AND THE NATIONAL OLYMPIC ACADEMIES

Prof. Konstantinos GEORGIADIS IOA Honorary Dean University of Peloponnese

National Olympic Academies are an integral part of the International Olympic Academy, the International Olympic Committee and the Olym- pic Movement.

Once the IOA had begun its activities in 1961, a number of important and substantial issues related to its operation and linked to the attainment of its goals came to light. It became obvious that the IOA needed the support of other organizations in order to respond to the educational requirements of the Olympic Movement.

Attending lectures during the IOA’s Sessions was not considered suf- ficient to make participants aware of the Academy’s mission and their own contribution to it. The selection of the participants, their preliminary training, their stay at the International Olympic Academy and the need to draw upon their knowledge and experience, led to the creation of Nation- al Centers for Olympic Studies in other countries. Participants in the IOA’s Sessions and Seminars now had a point of reference in their respective countries around which they could rally in order to develop their Olympic education activities in cooperation with the IOA.

In the discussion groups at the IOA’s Sessions, the idea of a “Nation- al Olympic Academy” has been considered as a “popular topic”. As many National Olympic Committees do not comply with their educational obligations in a consistent manner, participants at the Sessions have demanded the creation of National Olympic Academies (NOAs) to allow those who attend the Sessions of the IOA once they return to their country to become involved in their core activities and operate as the ambassadors of Olympism in their homeland.

Today, almost 50 years after the establishment of the first National THE IOA AND THE NATIONAL OLYMPIC ACADEMIES 5

Olympic Academies, the aim of each National Olympic Academy is, through Olympic education programmes, to cultivate and disseminate the Olympic Ideal, study and apply the universal educational and social principles of the Olympic Movement, in conformity with the Olympic Charter, within the national and cultural boundaries of each National Olympic Committee, in cooperation with the IOA and the IOC.

National Olympic Academies are the IOA’s extensions and operate as transmitters and receivers for the promotion of the Olympic Charter’s ideals through the national Olympic education programmes. Each Na- tional Olympic Academy must also encourage the practice of sport among all social and age groups and promote the idea of sport as a fundamental human right.

These aims are achieved by the NOAs by means of programmes which they develop themselves in collaboration with the NOC and other sports and educational entities in their country.

The role of each National Olympic Academy is to:

1. • communicate with the IOA and follow its activities; • select and initially prepare participants for the IOA’s Sessions; • plan and organize at least one national session each year on the topic of the IOA’s special theme; • maintain contact with former participants; • set up a working group or committee of old participants at the IOA’s Sessions that will support the IOA’s work within the country’s national boundaries; • submit an annual report on its educational activities to the IOA and the IOC;

2. •promote Olympic education programmes in primary and secondary education; • train the administrators of the Olympic Movement in their country on the issues of Olympism; • provide further training to physical education teachers on issues related to Olympic education and organize educational courses jointly with the Ministry of Education; • train athletes participating in the Olympic Games; • educate Olympic winners to act as role models for the young; 6 DIRECTORY OF NOAs 2018

3. • organize lectures, seminars, summer courses for young people, chil- dren’s camps, scientific symposia dealing with specialized issues on the Olympic Movement; • organize cultural events related to the Olympic Movement; • organize festive events dedicated to Olympic victors and interviews with them; • hold a competition on Olympic sports poetry, painting and sculp- ture; • stage “mini-Olympiads” between schools; • organize Olympic Day events; • organize Olympic exhibitions;

4. • develop Olympic education manuals for all the levels of education on the Summer and Winter Olympic Games and on the Paralympic Games and distribute this material to educational establishments; • develop manuals in cooperation with history museums and non gov- ernmental organizations; • publish a review on Olympic education; • publish and distribute manuals and posters, as well as information material in general to all institutions concerned; • encourage historic and philosophical research projects on the Olym- pic Movement at national level;

5. • create an Olympic Museum; • create Olympic Archives; • create an Olympic thematic library; • organize a film library for the Olympic Games;

6. • communicate with public and private organizations and the media in order to raise awareness and inform citizens about the principles of Olympism; • create a web site with information on its aim, structure and activities; • seek cooperation with other NOAs for bilateral relations at continen- tal and/or international level; • set up working groups for sport and ecology, sport and women, sport and peace, sport and the media; • participate in international forums on Olympic education. • establish Centres for Olympic Studies in universities within THE IOA AND THE NATIONAL OLYMPIC ACADEMIES 7 the country for the training of students and cooperation with professors of humanities, as well as a chair of Olympism in universities.

National Olympic Academies should operate within the framework of their respective National Olympic Committees and their aims should be in harmony with those of the NOCs.

The presence of Juan Antonio Samaranch at the Presidency of the IOC (1980-2001) has facilitated the establishment of a great number of National Olympic Academies, since his main belief was that the NOAs should play a significant role on the educational part of the Olympic Movement.

The first official meeting of the first National Olympic Academies took place in Lausanne in 1982. Two years later, in Los Angeles, the Dean of the IOA at the time, Otto Szymiczek, who had been actively involved in their creation, presented detailed proposals and instructions regard- ing their mode of operation. The drafting of these proposals had been based on the 20-year experience of the IOA, as well as the experience gained as it followed the progress of all National Olympic Academies, which had been established until then.

In 1986, in support of the work of the NOAs, the International Ses- sion for Directors of National Olympic Academies was organized for the first time in Olympia attended by 14 NOAs. The Session wasor- ganized again in 1988 and 1990 with 37 and 39 NOA representatives respectively. Since 1992, the Session was called “International Joint Session” because it was attended by members and staff of National Olympic Committees as well as Academies. After 1999, it is held one year, only for Directors of NOAs and the following year, as a Joint Session with the participation of NOC professional staff. Through these Sessions that focused exclusively on the role, operation, structure and activities of NOAs, as well as Olympic education for the development of young people, the IOA has supported in the best possible way their activities, communication between them and the training of their staff.

During these Sessions, the NOA representatives present their educational activities and their Olympic education manuals, with their 8 DIRECTORY OF NOAs 2018

methodology and contents. They also discuss and establish contacts with other colleagues, thus ensuring their collaboration after the end of the Session. Furthermore, the Session for NOA Directors represents a periodical but permanent forum for the presentation of activity reports by the NOAs.

The IOA has also encouraged NOAs to organize Olympic education seminars in its facilities in Ancient Olympia so that their people can become acquainted with the history and archaeological sites of the birth- place of the Olympic Games.

One of the main objectives of the IOA is to increase to a maximum level the number of National Olympic Academies and ensure that ac- curate information is available on their educational framework of operation. Many National Olympic Academies are doing outstanding work. Every year, they train hundreds of young people and adults on Olympic issues in their countries. They also develop excellent Olym- pic education programmes.

Approximately five decades after the creation of the first Nation- al Olympic Academies many of the objectives concerning Olym- pic education have been achieved. Olympic education is a wide- ly recognized concept all over the world and its ideas are the object of study and research at universities.

Today, more than ever before, the International Olympic Committee is called upon to support the work of the International Olympic Academy and thereby of National Olympic Academies. If the hu- manitarian ideas of the Olympic Movement are those which de- termine its cohesion and future course, then the intellectual network of the International Olympic Academy in cooperation with Na- tional Olympic Academies is of outmost importance for the propagation of these ideas worldwide.

Blending sport with culture and education through the activities of the IOA and NOAs, the Olympic Movement will continue to play a leading role in disseminating its fundamental moral principles of respect for others, fair play, equality, democracy and peace in the world.
