Overview

Let's investigate how the Olympics & Paralympics bring us together, both globally and locally, and the impact they have on our communities!

Building Global and Local Communities: The Impact of Olympic & Paralympic Games

This event will delve into the ways in which the Olympic Games shape and influence communities on host cities. Join us in Royce Hall 306 for a thought-provoking discussion on how this global event impacts both local neighborhoods and the world at large. Drawing on the experience of Saint Denis, France and Los Angeles, experts in the field will explore common grounds between the two cities and communities building.
