04 September 2025 – Four projects have each been awarded USD 50,000 as a part of the Collaborative Action Grant, funded by the Olympic Refuge Foundation (ORF) on behalf of the Sports for Refugees Coalition, for organisations working to support displaced people through sport.

The selected initiatives span across Lebanon, Germany, Cyprus and Greece, and embody the two priority themes of the grant: “Bridging Communities”, which emphasises the role of cities in driving inclusion; and “Sport Against Hate”, addressing discrimination, misinformation and hate speech through sport. All four initiatives involve new partnerships with members of the Sport for Refugees Coalition, ensure meaningful refugee participation, and demonstrate scalable potential.
