The commission members praised the work of the previous term (2020–2024), led by Amel Tuka, who organized the first Athletes’ Forum of the OK BiH in 2023, gathering top athletes from Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Athletes’ Forum was the first event of its kind to bring together former, current, and future top athletes from Bosnia and Herzegovina, who utilized this opportunity for education, information exchange, and experience sharing, along with a variety of content presented by prominent sports workers in BiH, as well as representatives from the IOC. The Athletes’ Commission also participated in creating the conclusions of the "Round Table of the OK BiH," which relate to the systemic financing of elite sports in Bosnia and Herzegovina. They launched a video campaign by recording 12 video messages and participated in TV shows where they highlighted the issues of financing elite sports in BiH, directed to decision-makers and budget legislators at all levels of government in BiH.
