Episode Notes
In the last episode of our Sports & Rights season, we dove into the subject of sportswashing and the nefarious use of sports as soft power. At the end of that episode, we posed a few questions: Who plays a role in ensuring that sports aren’t just about profits over power? Who can guarantee that human rights get their due in these huge, lucrative businesses? In this episode, we try to answer those questions by talking to athletes, activists, and experts in sports ethics. We also touch on recent events, such as FIFA accepting Saudia Arabia’s bid for the 2034 World Cup, which underscore just how important the topic of sports and human rights continues to be.
We’ll be back soon with our final episode of this season!
