It follows a long line of Olympic slogans including Beijing’s “One World, One Dream” in 2008 and Barcelona’s “Friends Forever” from 1992.
While “Inspire a Generation” will focus primarily on encouraging British young people into sport, the organising committee has said that it hopes to provoke social change throughout 20 countries, involving 12 million people, under its international inspiration programme.
Here is a slideshow of some of Olympic slogans and logos from the past three decades:
