OSE's reason for being
OSE has chosen a simple path:
To help build an ever more fraternal Humanity by training ambassadors of Olympism.
Every young person hosted or sent abroad discovers another culture, represents their country, learns to better understand others and to better understand themselves.
Through them, it is not just two clubs or two families that meet.
It is Humanity that grows.
For a French rugby player, the Bouclier de Brennus is present even before the championship begins. It draws every club, every coach and every player. It shapes projects, training, choices and sacrifices.
For an athlete preparing for the Olympic Games, the gold medal plays the same role. Long before the competition, it gives direction, density and intensity to every training session, to their entire preparation and, more broadly, to their whole existence.
In the same way, ALTIS gives direction, density and intensity to OSE World, to every OSE Country, to the clubs, the families, the ambassadors and to all the partners who freely choose to contribute, through Olympism, to building an ever more fraternal Humanity.
OSE World, OSE Countries, the clubs, the families and the ambassadors are not pursuing different goals. They are taking part in one and the same endeavour.
Every successful exchange, every encounter, every friendship, every young person who grows strengthens trust between people, clubs, cultures and peoples.
So, training an ambassador of Olympism is not simply about preparing a young person for an international trip.
It is contributing, concretely, to building an ever more fraternal Humanity.
Training ambassadors of Olympism to help build an ever more fraternal Humanity.
