Scholars offer Olympic advice

UK-Japan News March 2017

Visitors from Japanese universities met with staff from the University of East London (UEL) to gain valuable advice for the upcoming Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Newham Recorder reported on 1 February.

Organised by the British Council, talks were given by the UEL on how to prepare for the Games, with a focus on hosting an Olympic training camp, volunteering opportunities, marketing and communications, research and special Paralympic projects.

The UEL was the first stop on a five-day tour of UK universities.
