The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is moving towards the formal bidding process for the 2036 Olympic Games. 

Most of the would-be host nations persecute LGBTs, women, migrant workers, refugees and ethnic and religious minorities.

Recent history shows us that the 2036 games are likely to be used again to sportswash human rights violations and police state laws. 

The IOC must guarantee that athletes and fans can enjoy the Olympics, without worrying whether they will be arrested for wearing a rainbow ribbon or criticising the host nation’s human rights abuses.

At its Congress in Mumbai this month, the IOC  must ensure that it lives up to its human rights commitments by excluding applications for 2036 from countries that abuse human rights – 2036 is the 100th anniversary of the 1936 Nazi Olympics. Let’s make sure there is no repeat in 13 years time. 

“Faster, Higher, Stronger – Together” is the motto of the Olympics. 

It should also be “Diverse, Free, Equal – Together”
