Ini7ally
Framed
as
“Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport”
• (1)
Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport
is
essen7al
to
preserve
and
sustain
the
legacy
of
the
United
Na7ons’
Interna7onal
Year
of
Sport
and
Physical
Educa7on
to
ensure
that
the
communi7es
worldwide
con7nue
to
consider
sport’s
vital
role
in
social,
poli7cal
and
cultural
development.
• (2)
Although
sport
currently
crosses
interna7onal
boundaries
on
a
daily
basis,
an
Interna7onal
Day
uniquely
devoted
to
the
celebra7on
of
sport
would
provide
a
dis7nct
forum
for
the
interna7onal
community
to
acknowledge
and
reflect
on
its
role
in
civil
society.
• (3)
An
Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport
would
encourage
the
infusion
of
sport
into
other
Interna7onal
Days,
including:
Interna7onal
Women’s
Day,
Interna7onal
Day
for
the
Elimina7on
of
Racial
Discrimina7on,
World
Health
Day,
Interna7onal
Youth
Day,
Interna7onal
Day
of
Disabled
Persons,
and
Human
Rights
Day.

An
Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport
would
provide
an
opportunity
to
build
upon
the
model
of
the
Olympic
Truce
resolu7on
that
has
been
developed
by
the
United
Na7ons
and
the
Interna7onal
Olympic
CommiSee
(IOC).
(5)
Given
the
recent
momentum
of
sport
throughout
the
world
in
a
local,
na7onal,
and
interna7onal
capacity,
an
Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport
would
provide
many
non-‐
governmental
organiza7ons
a
unified
opportunity
to
raise
awareness
for
their
causes.
(6)
It
is
hoped
that
an
Interna7onal
Day
of
Sport
will
be
observed
through
educa7on,
celebra7on,
and
public
awareness
to
acknowledge
the
many
ways
in
which
sport
promotes
social
and
cultural
development.
