The FIFA Women’s World Cup is just a few months away, and with preparations underway, Donnovan brings on Minky Worden, Director of Global Initiatives at Human Rights Watch to discuss how the tournament (and organization) needs to be better than it was in Qatar for the athletes competing in Australia and New Zealand (3:20). Afterwards, he chats with NYU professor Michael Posner on the hardships created by worker-paid recruitment fees, a subject of his research into global sporting events (37:42). To wrap up, Donnovan chats with University of Waterloo PhD student Kevin Wilson on how new multi-sport facilities can be used after major events have wrapped up (1:02:02).
