Welcome to People Fixing the World from the BBC World Service with me, Mayra Anubi.
Now we're the show that runs faster, leaps higher, and works harder to bring you positive news from around the world.
And this week, it's a special Olympics program that looks at how sport can have a positive impact on people's lives.
The Olympics are here, and I am excited because it takes me back to my childhood.
We were big Olympic fans, and like billions of other people across the world, the entire family would be glued to the screen, especially during the opening ceremony.
I particularly remember how we would eagerly wait to see the Kenyan team do that famous parade walk.
And when athletes won and the national anthem would echo in those stadiums, it was just magical.
The Olympics are a powerful reminder of the impact that sport can have.
And today we'll hear from people whose lives have been transformed because of playing sport.
Cricketers in Lebanon and footballers in Kenya.
But first, the remarkable story of someone who's actually taken part in the Olympic Games.
It was really a moment that you're proud of your journey, you're proud that you didn't give up, and now you're in the stadium.
It was a really special moment.
Masuma Ali Zader is a cyclist from Afghanistan who participated in the last Olympic Games in Tokyo.
But she didn't represent her home country.
She was part of the refugee Olympic team.
