A review by Chung et al. estimated a global e-sport audience of over 380 million in 2017. While e-sports and gaming are seen predominantly as recreational activities, more recently e-sports have been recognized as a professional competitive sports activity in many parts of the world. (...) However, apart from smartphones, other e-sport and gaming devices were not part of this standard. (...) WHO and ITU held its first consultative workshop on identifying use cases and requirements for safe listening in e-sports and gaming. The objectives were:
to identify e-sports use cases where safe listening would be beneficial.
to start a dialogue towards a common understanding on possible requirements that would enable safe listening in e-sports and video gaming.
to understand the perspectives of stakeholders in the field.
to determine the way forward for creating a technical standard on the application of safe listening principles in e-sports.

In this latest edition of our Podcast Classics series, we’re going to be connecting the dots between Ancient Greece, rising tensions on the Korean Peninsula, and the boxer the world knows, simply, as “the greatest”: Muhammad Ali.
(...) Matt Wells has also been talking to the head of the Olympic Truce Centre and asking him what the value really is of sporting role models like Ali, to the world at large in times of conflict and strife.
