Brief description of the Unit |
This unit provides students with an introduction to the theory and practical application of the management of sport development. Sport development has become a significant part of the international sport landscape from two aspects: Development of Sport (from mass participation to high performance development pathways for professional participation and talent identification); and Sport for Development and Peace (the role that sport can play in contributing to social outcomes and overall community wellbeing). The unit examines the different models of sport development and policies from international and national contexts, including the contribution that sport makes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. |
