Explain Ways of maximizing the benefits and minimizing the challenges of hosting Olympics.

The government is bidding to host the Olympics. You have been asked to analyse the various impacts of hosting such an event. Use this analysis to recommend ways of maximising the benefits and minimising the challenges of hosting the Olympics.

Do you believe that Colwell way can be considered as a new way to appreciate other cultures without undercutting them, also should museums consider this as a new ethical system?

“The ICOM Code of Ethics for Museums addresses diverse museum-related topics such as acquisition procedures, compliance with legislation, management of resources, security, returns and restitutions. The Code also advocates strong principles playing a key role in the fight against illicit traffic, for instance concerning due diligence and provenance.” – ICOM Code of Ethics

One of the main points that keep reoccurring to me in this course is “what belongs to a museum”. In my search of what makes museums ethical I came across a Ted talk by Chip Colwell who is an archeologist and a museum curator that uses the system of “collecting and returning” for his museums as a way to “fix” the dark past of museums.
