THF Action & Goals

 

This program, co-financed by the Olympic Refuge Foundation (ORF) and the French Ministry of Sports, aims to enable refugees and displaced populations in Île-de-France, to develop a sense of belonging and define a positive life plan, through sport’s practice and job opportunities in that field.

“Terrains d’Avenir” just like THF, promotes the values of Olympism and places sport at the service of humanity. Program will mainly focus on 10 to 24 years old children and youth.
