Olympic Games Impact (OGI) Study for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games: Baseline Report VANOC

Abstract

This report is submitted by the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (VANOC) to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in partial fulfillment of VANOC’s role in implementing the Olympic Games Impact Program (OGI) for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (2010 Winter Games). The IOC’s OGI Program includes a series of 126 indicators that measure the status of many environmental, socio-cultural and economic dimensions of the host city, region and nation. The purpose of the Program is to measure the impact of the Olympic and Paralympic Games through a consistent and comparable reporting system across all future Games, presented in a series of four reports developed by each Olympic Games Organizing Committee. This report represents the first of four OGI reports for the 2010 Winter Games and provides a baseline against which indicator data in future reports will be compared and analyzed.
