Africa in the historical test of hosting the Olympics; Warmth, passion and effort to show different faces.
Senegal is about to host a historic event; The Youth Olympic Games. The continent of Africa has so far not had the privilege of hosting any Olympic event, and now it has the opportunity to show its capabilities; Hoping that it might be able to host the 2036 Olympics in the future. Perhaps this is why these days the officials of the International Olympic Committee say more about the good events and the positive features of this hospitality.
But the historical importance of this hosting is not the only difference between the Dakar Games and the previous ones. The differences could be felt even before the athletes' trip and during their preparation and vaccination stages; The sensitivities that showed participation in this event have different conditions and considerations compared to the previous Youth Olympics and even other multi-sport events.
