Girls participating in the joint programme of UN Women and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to empower young women and girls through sport were the IOC President’s special guests at the Launch of Medals and Victory Ceremonies of the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
