Focused on solidarity, diversity and excellence, this major sports and cultural event will once again offer French-speaking youth the opportunity to excel and compete in a spirit of exchange, sharing and discovery. This document defines the rules and conditions of pre-selection and selection for each event in the Democratic Republic of Congo/Kinshasa 2022 edition of the Games. Its purpose is to inform member states and governments of the International Franco- phone Organisation (OIF) of the rules. This document of rules is complementary to the “Registration Guide” document. These rules will then be repeated in full in the technical manuals which the CNJF will supply to states and governments for each discipline. The use of masculine in this document is intended to lighten the text. The CIJF strongly encourages gender parity and respect for human rights in all organizational sectors. 3 IXes Jeux de la Francophonie RÉGLEMENTATION DES IXes JEUX DE LA FRANCOPHONIE – RÉPUBLIQUE DÉMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO / KINSHASA 2022 CONTENTS RULES OF CULTURAL COMPETITIONS....................................................6 General rules ................................................................................................................6 1.
