Corruption and Human Rights in the Sports Context

January 2017

As corruption, cronyism, and conflicts of interest can impact any aspect of the delivery of a mega-sporting event (MSE) with regard to human rights over the entire life cycle, anti-corruption measures need to be integrated across all the respective thematic areas examined in this series of White Papers, with a particular focus on Sports Governing Bodies and Host Actors. This White Paper gives an overview on the most frequent corruption risks linked to MSEs that might be important for the discussion within the multi-stakeholder MSE Platform Steering Committee chaired by Mary Robinson.
