37e Olimpiadi degli Scacchi | Torino 2006

37° Olimpiade degli scacchi Maggio - Giugno Torino 2006

Chess and ethics

Many federations will be represented at the Chess Olympiad, some from countries that are currently embroiled in war, such as the USA, Iraq and Afghanistan or Israel and Palestine - countries that will show their desire to get together and ability to live in peace under the banner of the Chess Olympiad.
Games have always been a vehicle for moral and ethical values, and the Chess Olympiad is particularly noteworthy in its ability to bring nations together.
In this context a conference is also being held to highlight cultural exchange and dialogue between nations, with the intention of encouraging young people to embrace a positive model of society and civil behaviour.
