The \u201cTogether for Tomorrow, Enabling People\u201d project was developed by Samsung and the IOC to help Olympic and Paralympic fans around the world experience and engage with the Olympic Movement. The program is especially focused on younger generations, with the new community designed around the goal of helping youth participants \u201csolve, move and create in the spirit of the Olympic values.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether for Tomorrow, Enabling People\u201d introduces three new community-oriented initiatives. Solve Challenge integrates sport and Olympism with Samsung\u2019s Solve for Tomorrow program<\/a>, a youth-focused social contribution program that empowers young people to design innovative solutions using sport and tech to address key social challenges aligned with the priorities of the IOC\u2019s Olympism365. Move Challenge encourages fans of the Games around the globe to get up and walk more using Samsung\u2019s smart mobile phone<\/a>. Create Challenge lets participants get creative in an innovative digital artists\u2019 community through Samsung\u2019s smart device and S pen.<\/p>\n

At the launch event, 10 teams that excelled in Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow program<\/a> were announced as \u201cTogether for Tomorrow, Enabling People\u201d ambassadors. Throughout the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024<\/a>, the ambassadors will showcase the solutions they\u2019ve created to address social challenges and work to engage Olympic fans around the world. They will also collaborate with the IOC Young Leader \u2014 as well as diverse initiatives fostered by the IOC \u2014 to address solutions including the promotion of sustainable development.<\/p>\n

During the \u201cTogether for Tomorrow, Enabling People\u201d event, the ambassadors shared their Solve for Tomorrow projects<\/a> designed to address real-world problems. A variety of innovative solutions were presented, ranging from help for people to overcome visual disabilities to new ways to promote worker safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cSamsung Solve for Tomorrow empowers high school students with the courage to change the world,” said Ngan Huu Kim Le, a member of the U.S. team that developed an insect-based environmental cleanup solution. \u201cIt\u2019s an honor to take part and have a chance to present our solution to help build a brighter future for our planet here at Paris 2024 with prominent athletes from around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
