Pre-NASSS Conference/Workshop
The 2010 Olympics and Legacies Now
Nov 1, 2006
9am – 4.30pm
The School of Human Kinetics at the University of British Columbia is hosting a pre-NASSS on the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and Legacies Now. Participants will include organizers of the 2010 Olympics, UBC researchers involved in Olympic-related research, graduate students, local community members involved in related activities and NASSS visitors.
The agenda will include keynote speeches, panels and discussions about the planning and activities of the Vancouver Olympic Committee, Legacies Now, and broader initiatives concerning sustainability, diversity and social justice such as Right to Play and Sport for Peace.
We cordially invite NASSS members who are coming to the NASSS conference to plan to join us on November 1. The conference will take place in a beautiful venue, at the Liu Centre for Global Issues on the UBC campus, some 20-30 minutes away from the Marriott Renaissance Hotel in downtown Vancouver. We will provide lunch and, following the day’s activities, UBC will host a reception for participants.
Seating will be limited to 100 people so registration will have to be limited. Please email Christiane Job (Christiane.job@gmail.com) concerning your interest in registration and we will send you a registration form as numbers permit.
