1.1 Welcome message from the LOC
Dear Teams,
We are honored to welcome you to Cortina d’Ampezzo and to the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships.
After one hundred races held on the classic Olympia delle Tofane slope, better known as the Queen of Speed, the world’s attention will focus on the Dolomites and Cortina with two weeks of races that will mark the rebirth of Winter Sports, one year after the health emergency that struck Italy and Europe.
You are not just invited: you will be the bright stars of this event! Races, medals, titles that last a lifetime. We hope that all this will be accompanied by smiling faces and emotions, surrounded by the magnificent Dolomites, UNESCO World Heritage Site. Passion is important for all athletes but also for us at Fondazione Cortina 2021.
We hope to build together indelible memories, always playing fairly: alpine skiing and Cortina d’Ampezzo have always had a strong connection. This is the perfect moment to hold the World Ski Championships before hosting the 2026 Winter Olympics that have been awarded to Milan-Cortina.
We started this journey together in 2016 and took a short break when Cortina 2020 FIS Alpine Ski World Cup Finals were canceled. It is now time to get started again, with you all. We hope that you can work in the best possible conditions, have fun and enjoy our local area, sharing our signature-sport, innovation, emotions and sustainability.
The Organising Committee team is at your disposal to support you in this mission.
Good luck and enjoy your time at Cortina 2021!
Alessandro Benetton Valerio Giacobbi Fondazione Cortina 2021 President Fondazione Cortina 2021 CEO
3 2 Covid-19 Rules
Dear Teams,
We wish to inform you that all the information contained herein are confirmed to date, July 2020.
Due to the current situation generated by the outbreak of Covid 19 and to the unknown consequences and actions that it may generate and require, we kindly ask you to bear in mind that specific rules and regulations could be activated by our national Government forcing us to make changes to the existing logistics set up and /or impose limitations in the use of general spaces as well as compulsory social distancing.
We do hope none of the above will be necessary and that we will hold the Event as planned; nevertheless we will immediately inform you of any changes should they occur and assure you we will be ready to find countermeasure solutions that can minimize consequences if and where possible.
The LOC will work to ensure the maximum level of health safety for athletes and their staff during the Championships, according to the Italian Government regulations, the WHO recommendations and the FIS COVID-19 Prevention Guidelines for Event Organisers
Therefore all NSA will be required to follow the above mentioned rules.
Further and detailed information will be provided to all NSA in the upcoming months based on the trend and global evolution of the pandemic.

See the following link for the application: https://www.mise.gov.it/index.php/en/documents/2034593-temporary-frequencies- use

34 9 Official Logo
The connection with the mountains and Cortina, snow, sport and Italian tradition: these are the concepts behind the logo of Cortina 2021 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships. There are two complementary elements which interact in the logo, snow and action. Each of them recalls a range of contents and values and together they form a true symbol and describe a legacy that wants to last over time.
The crystallized snow on the Cortina 2021 logotype represents the urban context as a decorative element, creating the mood of the event.
Action is the fusion between Italian tradition and Cortina: the shield is highly evocative of sport and embodies the colors of the Italian flag, the blue of our national sports uniforms and the red squirrel, the symbol of Cortina d’Ampezzo.
With the official name FIS Alpine World Ski Championships, the logo will be present on institutional communications and on merchandising, and it will be used with or without the snow element.
The logo of Cortina 2021 was designed by Italo Lupi and Heads Collective (Renzo di Renzo).
35 9.1 Approval process
Any usage of the logo or of the official wording on any kind of media/material, is subject to approval by the LOC/Infront. Usage should be compliant to logo guidelines provided.

14 Sustainability
Fondazione Cortina 2021 is strongly committed to be sustainable in the long term and to leave a positive legacy: the organisation of such a big event will meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Fondazione Cortina 2021 sustainability is made of facts:
• Ideal facts: the event was born in compliance with the most current principles of corporate responsibility. First of all, the responsibility towards the environment and the local community that hosts the event;
• Concrete facts: the event meets high standards in terms of energy saving, efficient use of every resource and careful waste management;
• Facts for the future: Fondazione Cortina 2021 will be an important occasion to gather experiences, work on the right sustainability practices and impart all this to the events of the near future;
• Realism and awareness: we are aware that the sustainability of the event cannot be seen as an absolute concept but we aim to adopt any measures that allow us to achieve the highest level of sustainability that is possible today;
• Knowledge, ideas and legacy: it is a global event that aims to leave a positive legacy and become a reference model for the big winter events of the future.
In this project, special attention is devoted to environmental topics: as a matter of fact sustainability principles will be applied in the planning, organisation and management of the 2021 FIS Alpine World Ski Championships with the aim to minimize the environmental impact and maximise the reuse of materials, thus paving the way for the application of new technologies for big events.
43 Three essential practices:
• Circular economy a. Use of recycled materials b. Separate waste collection for the valorisation of resources contained in waste c. Reuse of material at the end of the event for recycling purpose
• Carbon management a. Adoption of energy efficiency measures b. Footprint evaluation of the event, i.e. its real climate impact c. Compensation of CO2 emissions
• Certification a. Certification for the sustainable management of the event released by independent, external bodies b. Adoption of the international standards ISO 20121:2012 and ISO 14064-1:2019 c. Report to the stakeholders with numerical performance indicators.
14.1 What can you do?
• Please choose public transport for your travel. However, if you can’t leave your car at home, consider to share the journey with your colleagues. Car-pooling is an excellent alternative!
• Choose one of our ecological gadgets, such as bamboo cups or items manufactured in the Venice prison with the advertising banners of past events
• Put on your plate, just what you think you will eat. In doing so, you will be able to help someone who has not enough food.
• If you smoke do not throw your cigarette ends around, but look for one of our ashtrays
• Contribute to a “quality” separate collection and throw glasses, plates and cutlery in the ORGANIC. Although they may seem plastic, they are all compostable
