Handbook on Human Rights and Mega-Sport Events - Online version out now

The online version of the Handbook on Human Rights and Mega-Sport Events is online now and can be downloaded. The handbook is part of the European project "Queering Football" and the project "Our Game" in Austria.

Recently, public criticism of human rights violations linked to the staging of mega-sport events has increased. Sport has a responsibility to guarantee and promote fundamental rights. This handbook analyses the role played by different stakeholders and introduces relevant documents. It provides a strong policy rationale and arguments for hosting better sport events in future and aims to spark a debate with relevant actors in the field.
