The International Olympic Committee (IOC) Executive Board (EB) on Wednesday decided to follow the recommendation of the Future Host Commission for the Games of the Olympiad to enter into a targeted dialogue for the Olympic Games 2032.IOC, in a release, said it will start more "detailed discussions" with the Brisbane 2032 Committee and the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) about their potential to host the Games of the XXXV Olympiad."Under the IOC's new, more targeted and flexible approach to future host elections, the two Future Host Commissions (Summer and Winter) are permanently open to exploratory, non-committal continuous dialogue with interested parties and National Olympic Committees (NOCs) on their ambitions to host future Games. The Future Host Commission gave the opportunity of a presentation and a discussion to the interested parties in the continuous dialogue, which resulted in meetings on 3, 8 and 9 February 2021," IOC said.IOC said the Future Host Commission will now start a targeted dialogue with the Brisbane 2032 Committee and the AOC, and will report back to the IOC EB on the outcome of these discussions in due course. "If all the requirements are met, the IOC EB can propose the election of the future host of the Games of XXXV Olympiad to the IOC Session. If the discussions are not successfully concluded, Brisbane 2032 will rejoin the continuous dialogue," it added."At the same time, the Future Host Commission will also maintain the continuous dialogue with the other interested parties, in order to further develop their excellent and promising projects, be it for the Olympic Games 2032 if the Targeted Dialogue with Brisbane 2032 and the AOC is not successful, or for the Olympic Games 2036 and other future Olympic events," the statement further read.The venue masterplan, which has already been discussed with International Sports Federations and the International Paralympic Committee; the high level of experience in hosting major international sports events; Australia's sporting success throughout modern Olympic history, are some of the reasons why Brisbane 2032 was proposed for the targeted dialogue."In evaluating Brisbane 2032's proposal, the IOC also took into consideration detailed information from independent third-party sources, including the World Bank, the International Labour Orgzation, the Orgsation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and numerous UN agencies including the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)," IOC said.IOC President Thomas Bach said: "According to the clear report of the Future Host Commission, the Brisbane 2032 project is fully aligned with Olympic Agenda 2020 and the new recommendations of Olympic Agenda 2020+5. It proposes sustainable Games in line with the region's long-term strategy and using primarily existing and temporary venues. The commitment of Australia and Ocea to Olympic sports has grown remarkably since the fantastic Olympic Games Sydney 2000. This is why we see such strong public support. We decided to seize an opportunity to take to the next stage our discussions about returning 32 years later. In this way, we are also acknowledging the strength of the Australian team and other athletes from across the continent of Ocea at the Olympic Games over the past decades."Chair of the Future Host Commission for the Games of the Olympiad Kristin Kloster Aasen added: "We are delighted the IOC Executive Board agreed with the Commission's recommendation to invite Brisbane 2032 to targeted dialogue. The IOC EB and the Commission noted the excellent progress that it has made, the strength of its proposition and the strategic opportunities it affords to the Olympic Movement. It meets all the criteria to be invited to move into the next stage."( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
