The Olympic Games

The Olympic Games have been running since 1896 and have undergone several changes in both structure and format since then. How can the Olympic Games continue to be the leading event within the world of sport? Are the Olympic values still valid? How should the Games continue its development while still upholding its current position?

Whereas the Olympic Games of Ancient Greece were held every four years in Olympia, the modern Games move across the world, with a new event held every two years, split between a Winter and Summer event. But what does an event of this size mean to the host city, what are the economic benefit or downturns? Is it necessary to move from city to city, continent to continent, to celebrate sport?
