At One Level
The recommendation # 6 describes the closer ties that will be established between the IOC and the International World Games Association (IWGA). The two organisations shall "… closely cooperate regarding the sports program composition and their respective evaluations."
The recommendation will affect the development of The World Games, the multi-sport event that was already held under the patronage of the IOC, in a most positive way. Commenting on the approval of the Agenda 2020, IWGA President and IOC Member José Perurena described the impact on the games and its sports. "This decision enhances tremendously the status of The World Games," Perurena said. "Working in cooperation with the IOC is essential for us to raise the level of competition and organisation of our Games.
"We want to demonstrate that our sports are on the same level as the Olympic sports and we aim to deliver superb Games," he added.
To get this message across visually, IWGA selected a photograph of DanceSport at The World Games 2013 Cali, COL.
