A/HRC/40/72 was aimed at sharing knowledge, building capacity and increasing accountability. Collective action allowed for the creation of key milestones and indicators for integrating human rights into mega-sport bidding processes, life cycles of events and host actor contracts. Governments, organizing committees, civil society, fans, the public, athletes, communities affected and consumers were enabling the power of collective action to advance the human rights agenda in sport and beyond. 44. Taily Terena, a member of the Intertribal Committee, presented the story of the World Indigenous Peoples Games in Brazil and its connections to human rights. Since 1996, Brazil had hosted two international and several national and local indigenous games. The events had encompassed sports, culture, tradition and spirituality. The games had invoked rituals for ancestors’ blessings and used traditional materials in natural environments. They had included football and traditional games practised by all or some indigenous peoples. They had hosted cultural presentations, seminars, workshops and traditional art and agriculture. Indigenous peoples found in sports a possibility to speak about their rights, to be heard and to unite the indigenous and the non-indigenous. Indigenous games made indigenous youth proud of their heritage and rescued their traditions. The United Nations, the International Olympic Committee, governments and others should cooperate and invest in human values for well-being (buen vivir). Ms. Terena called for differentiated sport events for women, indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities and other groups. The importance was in celebrating life, identity and culture. 45. During the interactive dialogue, Brazil, the Centre for Sport and Human Rights, CSKA Fans Against Racism, Japan, Mountain2Mountain, World Indigenous Nations Sports International and a former Special Rapporteur on adequate housing took the floor. One delegate asked about practical difficulties and concrete steps to mainstream human rights and sustainability in the 2020 Tokyo Games. Another enquired how indigenous games could create bonds among indigenous peoples. Participants discussed indigenous games, their value for elders and youth, and the important debates that these games hosted on climate change and peace. One participant asked whether Olympic and FIFA games could incorporate lessons of solidarity expressed in indigenous games. Another asked how to exert collective pressure to ensure broader participation of women. There was a call for more consultation and consideration of the perspectives of fans in sports, and an invitation to all to engage in other dialogues on sport and human rights after the Social Forum, such as the Sporting Chance Forum. 46. In response, Ms. Terena cited, as an example of post-event cooperation, a mission by Canadian indigenous peoples to New Zealand to learn about traditional sport practices. Connections among indigenous peoples allowed the exchange of good practices regarding political mobilization. Indigenous games promoted concrete ways to respect the environment. Mr. Friedmann stated that the Centre for Sport and Human Rights would provide a platform that would give voice to women and fans. Mr. Sugimoto said that practical difficulties were addressed through continued dialogue with all stakeholders in the 2020 Games. He called for help to disseminate the Tokyo 2020 grievance mechanism, particularly for those abroad in the games’ supply chain. Ms. Worden said that, for years, groups affected had not been taken seriously, but that recent trends were positive. Success in setting new rules around sports had not yet translated into optimal implementation. The systems implemented in Tokyo could serve as a model for future events. H. Race against time: sports for sustainable development and sustained peace 47. Juan Sánchez, a participant in the International Olympic Committee’s Young Change-Maker+ initiative, described his project in Colombia, created with the Committee’s support. Challenged by the failure of the 2016 Colombian peace agreement referendum, Mr. Sánchez saw sports as a tool to overcome polarization in society and to promote attitudes that fostered peace. The project consisted in taking international sports that were not popular in Colombia to communities at the margins of society. Resorting to various sports had allowed different skills and values to be learned, including team- and peacebuilding. Emphasizing the challenges faced by youth in initiating a project, he said that the support of 13
