Mega events vs sustainable impact (Part 2)
Episode description
Diversity of experience and opinion is crucial to effective dialogue and finding solutions.
At Global Sports Week in Paris, key actors from the world of motorsport, major events, suppliers, and representing Africa, Europe and the Middle East, explored the question: can major sports events be compatible with sustainable development?
