Between 26 July and 11 August, around 10 500 athletes will participate in the Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024 flying the flag for 206 nations and proudly representing the International Olympic Committee – IOC Refugee Olympic Team. The Games are expected to draw around 15 million visitors, including 2 million from abroad.   This year, the Olympic Games are fully aligned with Olympic Agenda 2020, to deliver spectacular Games that are more responsible, more sustainable and more inclusive.    The organizers have laid out a cutting-edge plan to halve the Games-related carbon footprint compared to previous Games, with innovative solutions for #energy, #food, #venues, #equipment, and #transport.   #France is also linking the Olympics with health and collaborating with World Health Organization , the IOC, FIFA and others by harnessing the power of #sport for #health:   By promoting #physical #activity and community-based sport for all;   By promoting #healthy #nutrition and mitigating the drivers of disease;   By fighting #tobacco and harmful #alcohol use; and more. On 25 July, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus will be speaking at the Paris Summit on Sports for Sustainable Development (S4SD), alongside President Emmanuel Macron, and IOC President Thomas Bach. At the Summit, countries and sports stakeholders will share their commitment to ensuring sport contributes to the #SDGs, in line with the Paris 2024 objectives, and as part of a broader commitment to future generations.    On 26 July, Dr Tedros will join #athletes to carry the torch to the stadium ahead of the opening at the end of the afternoon.    Are you travelling to the Olympics or Paralympics in Paris as a spectator?    WHO Regional Office for Europe, the French Ministry of Health and Prevention, Santé publique France and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) have jointly developed #publichealth advice for spectators of the Paris Olympics and Paralympics 2024 to promote their health, safety and well-being.     The advice offers guidance on topics that range from the #vaccines travellers may need before they undertake their journeys, to information on how to protect against various #illnesses, such as respiratory #diseases or #mosquito- and #tick-borne illnesses.   With scorching temperatures likely, the guidance also offers tips on how to stay cool in the #heat, prevent 3sunstroke and stay hydrated. Moreover, there is information on #sexual health and the use of alcohol and tobacco in France, and links to useful websites and phone numbers for anyone needing #medical #help. https://lnkd.in/dckpfcEa

The news stories around the Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024 are coming in thick and fast now and it starts to feel like a very different media world compared to the last Olympic Games. The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games was dramatically affected by Covid and this really transformed what people did during Games time, including what was shared or not shaed. The media world has also shifted since Rio 2016 and there is a new creator community that is driving audience awareness during this year's Games. Twitter or X isn't as prominent as it was then and we have TikTok dominating some of the campaign spaces online. The International Olympic Committee – IOC has also put digital audience experiences squarely in the frame and this year's Opening Ceremony will be a great example of that. I'm very grateful of the ongoing support from The University of Salford for this work and its wider continued support to my Olympic research career since 2014! More on this later, but please do remember to follow stories on Games Time News to discover something different. Testing out an altrenative to short form news...infinite form. Stories which develop over time, like Wikipedia, but more beautiful! ps. I also have a new article out soon on contemporary sport. There's a lot of new activity in Paris and these will be really interesting events to follow. https://lnkd.in/eR82xkQu

Are you a video gamer? If you are then you’ll probably know that there is a certain category of player who set themselves challenges and if successful they bask in the online applause There’s the usual boring speed run challenge (who can complete the game the fastest and with numerous variations on that theme) but then there are the more interesting ones which involve the “deprivations”. Complete the game without armour, without weapons, without running, without consuming medipacks, and completing a 500 hour game without any saves. You get the picture So allow me to introduce The 2024 Conveyancing Olympics I’m announcing the categories now to give you plenty of time to train First up, the “Snail” medal: Every Olympics needs a blue-ribbon event; and just like the 100 metres the crowd pleaser in conveyancing is the speed event. The prized medal will go to the slowest conveyancer. So forget relying on the supposed national average of 150 days, or “I’m waiting for the grant of probate” excuses, this has to be stringing it out for no reason other than the medal. How far will you go? The “Time Traveller” medal: Roll back the years and complete a transaction without sending a single email The “Big Question” medal: Ask as many irrelevant enquiries as you can, and if the oppo dare respond “but this isn’t relevant” sit on your hands for weeks. Finally there will be some recognition for your obstinance The “Robot” medal: Participants in this event will hide behind auto-generated emails, experimental AI, voicemail, no receptionist to take those desperate calls, and of course a raft of template enquiries “Take the 5th” medal: Silence is golden isn’t it. Well now you can get a gold medal for refusing to answer phone calls and emails. Nice! Every Olympics needs strength events doesn’t it - an opportunity to demonstrate your power. So I bring you the “Weakling” medal: A reward to those who let the oppo do all the heavy lifting- you know, like drafting all the essential documents and doing all that irritating chasing Now dust off your running shoes and get into shape for what is bound to be an incredible event The categories are still open so let me know if you have any suggestions
