Cenk Demiroglu1 , Dieter K. Müller2 Abstract This study aims to explore the evolution of governance frameworks in emerging destinations. The literature signals a continuum along which the frameworks move from state-led, formal governance to public-private-partnerships, where more flexible, market-driven systems are in play. In this study, an emerging tourism country, Azerbaijan, is analyzed in terms of its tourism development and institutionalization process. For this purpose, policy documents and six expert interviews were analyzed, followed by a validation process. The results revealed that the country is on the verge of rapid transitions regarding destination governance. Tourism has been prioritized on the political agenda for the past decade, and in the period from the declaration of 2011 as “Year of Tourism” to the COVID-19 pandemic, growth was registered in both supply and demand. Concordantly, institutional transformation has been initiated by launching the national Destination Management Organization (DMO) and three other regional DMOs, with new DMOs underway.

    sustainability Article Olympic Infrastructure—Global Problems of Local Communities on the Example of Rio 2016, PyeongChang 2018, and Krakow 2023 Bartosz Dendura Faculty of Architecture, Cracow University of Technology, 31-155 Kraków, Poland; [email protected]; Tel.: +48-12-374-2443 Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 18 December 2019; Published: 23 December 2019 Abstract: Every potential Olympic Games organiser assumers that the games they organise will be special, that they will help to set new, high standards both in the organisation of sports events themselves, as well as in the planning and carrying out of projects accompanying the games. Since the document entitled Agenda 21 was approved by the UN at the Earth Summit in 1992, environmental protection has become the mainstay of the discussion among the Olympic family, and the problem of sustainable planning has become one of the main features of published reports. The conclusion of the conference coincided with the Lillehammer Winter Olympics of 1994, which were praised as the first green games to be held, under the motto “White Green Games”. Four years prior, in Nagano, its organisers advertised the games with the slogan “Coexistence with nature”. London 2012, with its motto “Inspire a Generation”, highlighted the educational aspect of the events and the words “environment” and “sustainability” were on the lips of everyone everywhere in the context of every activity the organisers were undertaking. During Rio 2016, the motto was “Green Games for Blue Planet”. The goal of the article is to investigate whether these mottoes have been actually reflected in the measures taken by authorities and encompassing the period between proclaiming them as Games organisers, during the sports event itself, and during the post-Games period.

  • Baku 2015 European Games Qualification System Principles Preamble European Games Qualification Systems
    Baku 2015 European Games Qualification System Principles Preamble European Games Qualification Systems (EGQS) are the regulations established by each of the European Federations (EFs) that consist of rules and criteria for the participation of athletes in the competitions of the European Games. The EGQS shall conform to the Olympic Charter and the present Qualification System Principles as approved by the European Olympic Committees (EOC) Executive Board. EGQS vary from sport to sport and are established to give a fair and equitable opportunity for the best European athletes to participate in the European Games, to promote a broad and universal participation of European nations in each Sport, but also to limit the number of athletes for each event. European Games Qualification Principles: The following qualification principles will apply across all EGQS for the Baku 2015 European Games: • EGQS must allow for the participation of the best European athletes through a fair and transparent process within the framework of the Olympic Charter. These must also include a principle relating to universal participation and guarantee that the host nation is represented. • EFs have the exclusive authority to propose the EGQS that are applicable to each successive edition of the European Games as approved by the EOC Executive Board. • NOCs have the exclusive authority to select athletes duly qualified through the EGQS for the European Games. • Only existing EFs competitions or ranking systems should be used to determine qualification places. • The EGQS must allow for the allocation of places to either specific athletes or to an NOC. If places are allocated to an NOC, it should be clear whether NOCs have an open right of selection, or if there are technical requirements for athletes to meet minimum eligibility requirements.

  • Mr Ed Potter Ms Missy Owens Coca-Cola Company P.O
    Warsaw, 25 February 2015 Mr Ed Potter Ms Missy Owens Coca-Cola Company P.O. Box 1734 Atlanta, GA 30301, USA Re: Coca-Cola Company’s sponsorship of Baku 2015 European Games in the light of serious human rights concerns On behalf of the international NGO coalition ‘Sport for Rights’, and in the light of the media news concerning the sponsorship agreement between the Coca-Cola Company and the National Olympic Committee of Azerbaijan in relation to the European Games scheduled for 2015, we would like to draw your attention to the current political situation in Azerbaijan, and your potential complicity in and contribution to the human rights violations taking place in that country. In line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, business enterprises have an international responsibility to respect human rights in their business relations. They are required to: (a) Avoid causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts through their own activities, and address such impacts when they occur; and (b) Seek to prevent or mitigate adverse human rights impacts that are directly linked to their operations, products or services by their business relationships, even if they have not contributed to those impacts. Enterprises are also required to ‘know and show’ how they meet this responsibility, and in order to enable this, are expected to have in place effective policies and 1 processes appropriate to their size and circumstances, including processes to enable the remediation of any adverse human rights impacts they cause or to which they contribute. In its Human Rights Policy, Coca-Cola declares that: ‘The Coca-Cola Company respects human rights,” and that “It is committed to identify, prevent, and mitigate adverse human rights impacts resulting from or caused by our business activities before or if they occur through human rights due diligence and mitigation processes’.
