2021Summer Olympics in Tokyo - First Day Cover

The Games were originally scheduled to take place in 2020 but, like many other major international events, had to be postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The concept “Be better, together – for the planet and the people” reflects the aim of incorporating the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations into the planning and staging of the Games as far as possible. In Luxembourg, preparations are fully underway on the part of the National Olympic Committee (Comité Olympique et Sportif Luxembourgeois, COSL) with the aim of giving athletes the best possible support and enabling them to concentrate on their athletic performance.
