Sustainable Planning for the Olympic Legacy

The Olympic legacy, whether temporary or transitory, can manifest itself before, during or after the Games. It can quickly disappear after the event if efforts are not made to keep it alive through, for example, cultural programming, new environmental legislation, public awareness programming or new wider applications. In recent years, the Olympic legacy and the planning of the Olympic legacy have become increasingly important in the choice of host cities. The importance that has allowed many cities such as London, Sydney, and Tokyo, to develop an entity in charge of the planning and management of the post-Olympic legacy. In addition, sustainability and planning have become two key elements for Olympic success. The intangible possibility of training and involving new profiles in the territory proves to be fundamental to being able to manage the Olympic structures in the post-Olympic period.
