ABOUT SPORTANDDEV

The International Platform on Sport and Development (sportanddev) is a hub for the sport and development community to share knowledge, establish good practices, coordinate with others and create partnerships. It is a network of more than 1,000 organisations using sport for social, economic and environmental development. Through the sportanddev.org website, organisations are able to share news, commentary articles, job opportunities, research, events and other types of content.

sportanddev also runs an online course in partnership with the Commonwealth and Australian government called Sport for Sustainable Development: Designing Effective Policies and Programmes, and is involved in a range of other projects designed to improve the role of sport in societies globally. It is governed by a high-profile group of governments, intergovernmental organisations, sports federations and NGOs.
