The symbols, the memory and the history of the Olympic Games are an important legacy, since the material things created 1strengthen the image of the event in the local population’s memory, along with the memory of viewers everywhere who have watched the competitions. They also represent a source of 2income as they are 3goods sold during the event.
One of the most effective ways to ensure that the host city will get the legacy of the Olympic Games is to have the population participate in planning the work to be done. 4It is the very community who knows what a neighborhood needs, in terms of facilities, and how these can be of use after the event. The best legacy is the one that is incorporated into the life of and brings benefits to the community.
The organization process shared with the community may give the legacy a meaningful dimension. Learning how to discuss the needs of the community, democratically 6facing the differences in interests, and gathering partnerships for the 5viability of projects are unique experiences which can alter the relationship of the population with their politicians in a dramatic way.
