Mayor Karen Bass leads LA delegation in Paris on preparation for 2028 Summer Olympics

The Los Angeles Olympics will be held July 14-30 in 2028, the LA28 committee announced in July 2022. Transportation, homelessness and female empowerment will be on the agenda in Paris Friday as Mayor Karen Bass leads a delegation of Los Angeles officials hoping to learn from their European counterparts as the cities prepare to host the next two Summer Olympics.

— The delegation will tour La Fabrique de la Solidarité to learn about Paris’ homelessness response strategy. La Fabrique specializes in distribution of basic necessities and support for seniors, and provides training courses for volunteers, coordinates donations of money, clothes and other supplies, and provides information and resources for members of the unhoused community.

On Thursday, Bass said they talked about possible investments made by French companies in Paris that could be replicated in Los Angeles. Bass previously served as a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs for 12 years, leading several international delegations. Bass’ office said the focus of the trip is to learn best practices to generate business development, and learn from innovative housing, green transportation and infrastructure projects.Interviews in Idaho women’s volleyball investigation expected to be completed this week
