The Legacy and Sustainability plan for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games — 127 Guidance strategy for the Greater Paris Region The Greater Paris regional authorities A founding member of the Bidding Committee, the Greater Paris regional authorities have always been key to organising the Games. Creating a lasting, meaningful legacy for the event will largely depend on the role they play. By getting involved from the beginning of the Olympic journey, the Greater Paris regional authorities wanted the Olympic and Paralympic Games to benefit the entire region, while taking into account many aspects of the event beyond the scope of sports policies, including economic appeal, tourism, training, employment, development, urban planning, transport, sustainable development, disability and accessibility. Take a look at the Greater Paris regional authorities’ legacy plan • The Greater Paris Metropolitan Area As the contracting party for the Aquatics Centre and the pedestrian bridge linking it to the Stade de France, under the supervision of Solideo, the Greater Paris Metropolitan Area sets out to leave a lasting legacy for the local area by working alongside its partners. Take a look at the Greater Paris Metropolitan Area legacy plan • Regional guidance strategy for the 2024 Olympic Games Grand Paris Grand Est The Paris 2024 Games are an excellent opportunity for the local authorities that will host Olympic venues – many of which are located in Seine-Saint- Denis – to accelerate development through to 2024 and beyond. Grand Paris Grand Est is fully invested in these efforts and reiterates its intention to harness the Games to foster cooperation with urban areas to reap the benefits of any accelerator effect from public policies and thereby boost the region’s appeal and improve the quality of life for the people living in it. The combined authority acts as a go-to stakeholder that keeps towns informed about Paris 2024’s various programmes, supports their efforts and suggests joint projects at regional level.
