With the Paris Games coming to a close, the Olympics are returning to Hollywood after a 44-year hiatus. LA 2028 will be a display of American culture, technology, and their undying love for sports. The 1984 Olympic games in LA were when the Games went fully commercial - they were the first profitable Olympics ever. 🙌🏼 For 2028, LA already has existing infra that they will capitalize on including UCLA’s coveted university campus which will temporarily serve as the Olympic Games village, minimizing the cost of organizing the games. 🙌🏼 By 2028, the Games might reflect an even stronger commitment to sustainability and inclusivity, building on the progressive steps taken by Paris this year. The historic inclusion of cricket, after nearly a century, signals a bold move by the Olympic Committee to broaden the Games' global appeal. This addition could profoundly reshape Olympic viewership in cricket-loving nations like India, drawing millions of passionate fans and potentially transforming the Olympics into a truly universal celebration of sport. 🙌🏼 #Olympics2028 #LAOlympics https://lnkd.in/danVfCYQ

The Paralympic Games are a celebration of human achievement and diversity. Yet, as we enter the final week, it’s disappointed to see barriers to accessibility and inclusion persist. One significant issue is the lack of widespread television coverage. While the International Paralympic Committee offers a free #YouTube channel, many countries have restricted access due to exclusive broadcasting rights. This is a missed opportunity to promote inclusivity and showcase the incredible talents of Paralympic athletes. How can we truly embrace accessibility and inclusion if we can’t even watch the competitions? Let’s advocate for more equitable broadcasting practices and ensure that everyone has the chance to witness these inspiring events." #Paralympics #Accessibility #Inclusion #Sports #Equity https://lnkd.in/dAHYj6RW
