The Games as a positive legacy for Italy

According to the CEO of Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026 Andrea Varnier “the 2026 Games will represent an invaluable opportunity to inspire our stakeholders, partners and spectators, through the values ​​of sport, suggesting concrete and tangible sustainability actions - fundamental elements of our legacy for the future. We see our contribution towards sustainability and a positive legacy for the country as a team activity. The report we present today identifies our commitments towards climate change, the circular economy, human rights, gender equality, accessibility and inclusion, as well as towards sporting activity as a source of well-being and towards sustainable local development. It is up to all of us, together, to make them a reality”.

The time to act is now and this is why the projects and initiatives that are part of the Milano Cortina 2026 sustainability and legacy program are identified with the Now26 label.
