On October 28, the Olympic Refuge Foundation and the IOC Refugee Olympic Team were honored with the 2022 Princess of Asturias Award for Sports at a ceremony in Oviedo, Spain. Yiech Pur Biel – a member of the first-ever IOC Refugee Olympic Team at Rio 2016 and, since 2022, the first-ever refugee elected as an IOC Member – reflects on this historic recognition of the power of sport in helping millions of displaced people around the world, as well as his own journey.
