Working closely together
December, IOC approved a closer cooperation with IWGA. The decision was taken unanimously during an Extraordinary Session of the IOC in Monaco. It says: The IOC and the International World Games Association should “… closely cooperate regarding the sports program composition and their respective evaluations.” IWGA President and IOC Member José Perurena was very pleased about what the ‘strategic roadmap’ for the future of the Olympic Movement meant for The World Games. “This decision enhances tremendously the status of The World Games. Working in cooperation with the IOC is essential for us to raise the level of competition and organization of our Games,” said José Perurena.
