A giant step forward for athlete refugee programme in Kenya

Four key sports organisations and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) recently joined efforts for the first time to organise and host the 2025 Refugee Athlete Scholarship Trials
The article from World Athletics discusses the expansion of the Athlete Refugee Team (ART) program to Kenya, marking a significant step in supporting refugee athletes. Launched in 2017, the ART program has been pivotal in providing opportunities for refugees to engage in sports, offering them a sense of community, hope, and a platform to showcase their talents. The initiative in Kenya, supported by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and UNHCR, aims to integrate refugee athletes into local sports clubs, providing them with training, competition opportunities, and access to education and employment. This expansion not only helps in the personal development of the athletes but also promotes social cohesion and inclusion within the host communities. The program in Kenya follows successful models in other countries like Germany and Brazil, where similar efforts have led to athletes competing at international levels, including the Olympics.
