The ISF<\/a>\u2019s presence in over 200,000 schools worldwide, promoting youth participation in sports through events like the World School Championship and the biennial Gymnasiade ISF, is a testament to its commitment to youth sports development. The arrival of the ISF in Lausanne not only reinforces the city\u2019s position as a world center for international sports but also opens doors for new synergies to promote sports among young people globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This strategic move amplifies Lausanne\u2019s role as a central hub for global sports organizations. The ISF, which has been instrumental in fostering health, learning, gender equality, and inclusivity culture among youth, will establish its new headquarters at the Maison du Sport International (MSI<\/a>) in Lausanne. The federation, staffed with around ten employees, will work amidst nearly 60 international sports federations and organizations in the Vaud region, creating a unique environment for collaboration and growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This move is also a testament to the success of the Fondation Lausanne Capitale Olympique (FLOC<\/a>), established by the City of Lausanne and the canton of Vaud in early 2023. The FLOC aims to strengthen connections between public entities and sports organizations, demonstrating Lausanne\u2019s attractiveness to international federations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enhancing the vibrancy of the Olympic capital<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u00c9milie Moeschler, City Councillor, emphasizes that \u201cthe establishment of ISF in Lausanne underscores the city’s significance in the international sports world. It aligns with Lausanne\u2019s commitment to equality and inclusion in sports. We look forward to working with ISF and developing synergies in promoting physical activity among children and youth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christelle Luisier Brodard, State Councillor, added: \u201cThe ISF\u2019s arrival in our canton\u2019s international sports ecosystem will enhance the vibrancy of the Olympic capital. Their unique approach to school sports and collaboration with international sports entities will undoubtedly add significant value in promoting their discipline among youth globally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laurent Petrynka, ISF President, highlighted the decision\u2019s significance: \u201cPromoting equality, respect, and fair play through school sports is not just a mission but a passion for us. Lausanne represents these ideals in the international sports community. This move is a commitment to enriching the lives of young athletes worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
