The Chinese Olympic Committee (COC) hosted its tenth Youth Camp in Beijing from October 12-17, 2025, with 55 participants from 24 National Olympic Committees. The camp fostered Olympic values and international friendship through educational activities. Similar programs by the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA), International Biathlon Union (IBU), and others also promote technical skills, sustainability, and cultural exchange. These camps evolve to include modern topics such as artificial intelligence, and intercultural dialogue.

The IF Forum 2025 in Lausanne addressed the challenges of technological disruption, geopolitical shifts, and audience fragmentation in global sport. Discussions focused on agile governance, audience engagement through storytelling and digital adaptation, and achieving structural equality for women in sports, including increased representation in coaching and leadership roles. Athlete empowerment and their involvement in decision-making were also highlighted, alongside updates from Milano Cortina 2026 and Los Angeles 2028.

The IOC EB has approved the reallocation of Olympic medals and diplomas from the Vancouver 2010 and Sochi 2014 Winter Games following the disqualification of Evgeny USTYUGOV (RUS) for anti-doping violations. The International Biathlon Union (IBU) modified the results, leading to new rankings in several biathlon events. Athletes have options for receiving their reallocated medals, including a ceremony at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games.

The International Biathlon Union (IBU) updated its qualification for Milano Cortina 2026, allocating 186 of 210 quota places based on World Cup Nations Cup scores. The remaining spots will be awarded individually based on IBU qualifying points, excluding neutral athletes. The IBU confirmed that its rules do not accommodate neutral athlete participation, effectively barring Russian and Belarusian biathletes, suspended since 2022, from the Games.

The Swiss Federal Tribunal rejected Evgeny Ustyugov's appeal, upholding the CAS decision to strip his medals from the 2010 and 2014 Winter Olympics for anti-doping rule violations. The IOC will reallocate his medals. Martin Fourcade is set to become France's first six-time Olympic champion. Pavol Hurajt will receive silver, and Christoph Sumann will get bronze. Ustyugov's team will be stripped of their Sochi gold, which will now go to Germany. The ruling also affects Ustyugov's results at the 2011 World Championships. The IBU welcomes the decision.
