International Olympic Committee

The International Olympic Committee is the guardian of the Olympic Games and the leader of the Olympic Movement. A truly global organisation, it acts as a catalyst for collaboration between all Olympic stakeholders, including the athletes, the National Olympic Committees, the International Federations, Organising Committees for the Olympic Games, the Worldwide Olympic Partners and Olympic broadcast partners. It also collaborates with public and private authorities including the United Nations and other international organisations.  The vision of the International Olympic Committee is to Build a Better World through Sport. 

Thus far, Namibian athletes have participated in all Olympic Games since its independence in 1990.

Namibia has won a total of five silver medals courtesy of sprinters Frank Fredericks and Christine Mboma.
