  • Embracing Change Rio 2016 Sustainability Report September 2014 "Five Years Have Passed Since Rio De Janeiro Was Chosen to Host the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games
    Embracing Change Rio 2016 Sustainability Report September 2014 "Five years have passed since Rio de Janeiro was chosen to host the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games. One of our main commitments was to deliver sustainable Games and we have worked extremely hard towards that goal. With a mission to promote sustainable transformation through sport, our proposal is to use the Games as a catalyst for major behavioural change for all: government, business, society and behavioural. Over the past two years, the priority of Rio 2016 has been to develop and implement an operational plan with sustainability embedded in every stage of the process. This meant mobilising and engaging a large contingent of people to guarantee that sustainability was on the agenda of every area and it was made a part of all the decisions taken by the Committee. I am proud to see Rio 2016 headquarters becoming a reference in sustainable and affordable construction. Rio 2016 has contributed to the creation of a Sustainable Purchasing handbook and methodology, which already is a reference for companies in several sectors. I am equally proud that we are encouraging the development of Brazilian micro and small companies. We have a lot more work to do in the two years to come. With the Games fast approaching, confidence and enthusiasm is growing. Each passing day encourages me in my conviction that we will deliver excellent, memorable Games that will promote Brazil’s global image. All this, combined with a sustainable transformation through sport, is contributing to the growth of the Olympic and Paralympic Movements." CARLOS NUZMAN Rio 2016 President “More than organising the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2016, we committed to a series of principles which would underpin our work, such as sustainability, accessibility, legacy, accountability and transparency.
