Legacy Now Lecture Series
The LDA hosted a series of lectures from October to December for people interested in learning about the legacy of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Panellists from the LDA, the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) and the London Organising Committe of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) presented on the following lecture topics:
A summary is available on the Lecture series page. Presentations from most of the panellists involved are also available and can be downloaded from the lecture topic pages.
School Engagement
The LDA teamed with Fundamental, an architecture centre based in East London, to facilitate a schools programme to encourage participation from young people around their thoughts and ideas for the future of the Olympic Park. Fundamental worked with the 2012 unit within the five host boroughs to select the two schools that participated from each borough.
The youngsters involved in the programme learned about how their area would be transformed after the 2012 Games and were asked to share their ideas on what they wanted to see created. Children engaged in an intensive task of masterplanning new cities and related their own daily routines to the challenge of planning a neighbourhood.
