World Games Brochure - 31

SHOW THE WORLD YOUR
NATION'S BRIGHTEST SIDE,
AND ITS COMMITMENT TO
JUSTICE, AND INCLUSION
With more than 170 countries represented at World Summer
Games and more than 110 at World Winter Games, the host
country welcomes and unites people from all around the
world, and shares its traditions, history and culture, while
serving a greater good. Hosting Special Olympics World
Games helps boost tourism, which in turn drives local, state,
and provincial economies.
From the design of the logo and mascot, to the Opening
Ceremony, each country gets to put its unique imprint on the
look and marketing of the World Games, expressing its rich
culture and national pride within the overall theme of the
events themselves. The Games and their spectacular Opening
and Closing Ceremonies provide a splendid showcase for
the national and local customs and traditions. Each host city
produces experiential, entertaining and educational special
event programs that give athletes and attendees alike a true
immersion into the local culture.
One of the greatest benefits to a host country is the
unprecedented global media exposure the World Games
receive. Billions of impressions are garnered for the host
country as the Games are covered by Special Olympics
International broadcast partner ESPN and thousands of
journalists representing international outlets including
CNN, ABC, BBC, EuroSport, NHK, CCTV, Olympic Channel,
and SABC. Linking the host country with such a well-known,
passionate cause and organization builds national pride.
Most importantly, this tremendous global exposure raises
awareness and ultimately improves inclusive opportunities.

"AS THE STARTING GUN GOES OFF IN EACH OF THE
COMPETITIONS OF THIS IMPORTANT EVENT, LET US
HEAR THE 'BANG' FOR THE LARGER RACE IN WHICH
WE ARE ALL RUNNING, AND THE RACE IN WHICH THE
SPECIAL OLYMPICS IS AN IMPORTANT MARKER:
THE RACE FOR FULL, EFFECTIVE, UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS
PROTECTION FOR ALL PERSONS, REGARDLESS OF DISABILITY."
H.E. LUIS GALLEGOS,
FORMER AMBASSADOR OF ECUADOR TO THE UNITED STATES AND
CHAIRMAN OF THE GLOBAL U.N. PARTNERSHIP FOR INCLUSIVE
INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES
