Meeting Report: The 2016 Sporting Chance Forum

During 2016, nearly 20 organisations have been developing multi-stakeholder dialogue and joint action aimed at strengthening human rights risk assessment and mitigation in mega-sporting events from bidding through to construction, delivery and legacy. Mary Robinson has lent her energy and leadership to chair this initiative, the Mega-Sporting Events Platform for Human Rights, which is facilitated by IHRB. The Sporting Chance Forum, held in Washington D.C. on 13-14 October 2016, offered an opportunity for knowledge sharing and stock-taking of learning so far.
