ABOUT US image
Welcome to the website of the International Refugee Sports Federation (IRSF)!
We are an international organization dedicated to promoting sports among refugees and migrants. Our mission is to enhance the health, personal and social capabilities, cultural interactions, and employment opportunities of refugees and migrants.
In partnership with various international sports organizations and governments, IRSF implements a range of programs to foster sports participation among refugees and migrants. These programs encompass the organization of sports competitions, sports training classes, coach development initiatives, and even the provision of employment opportunities within the sports industry.
Through the creation of spaces for cultural interactions, IRSF strives to promote peace, solidarity, and cultural exchange within society. Nevertheless, our organization remains committed to pursuing long-term goals and endeavors to achieve them through collaborative efforts involving diverse stakeholders.
We express our unwavering support for refugee athletes who have been compelled to leave their homelands for any reason.
