The Doves Olympic Movement is an educational sports initiative based on the philosophy and principles of the Olympic Movement. The program rests on the idea that Olympism can be used as a useful tool for personal growth and development. In practice, the DOM uses sports as a tool towards achieving the following educational objectives: learning of fundamental values and human rights, facilitating personal and societal development, promoting peace-building and global citizenship, raising environmental awareness, developing long-lasting friendship, enhancing multicultural interaction, facilitating understanding and collaboration among cross cultural and diverse populations, developing conflict management and problem solving skills, and increasing technology skills.
