3:28Now PlayingThe 2024 Summer Olympics is set to begin this week. But the international sporting event won't kick off with the traditional opening ceremony, a parade of athletes entering a central arena, but rather, there will now be a parade of boats down the River Seine.
But while the Olympics will start with a celebration, the Summer Olympics are not removed from feeling the impact of geo-political crises and societal questions over gender identity in sport.
With 32 sports, 329 medal events and over 10,000 athletes representing 206 National Olympic Committees, PBS News' Tim McPhillips breaks down what you need to know about this year's summer games.
