Sport in Society's 25 Year History

Sport in Society utilizes the power and appeal of sport to create a just world by eliminating discrimination, hate and violence, while creating lasting solutions, and promoting healthy development and social responsibility.

We educate and support emerging leaders and organizations within sport with the awareness, knowledge and skills to implement innovative and impactful solutions for social change. As a result, we unite the global sports industry under a shared mission of social responsibility.

We focus our efforts on issues related to building communities that are healthy, safe and inclusive. Topical areas of work include: leadership, healthy development, diversity and inclusion, violence prevention, community building, community service, and civic engagement.

We achieve our mission through two main avenues:

1. Socially responsible leadership education and professional development, including: Academic Programs, Professional Certificate Programs, Workshops and Awareness Raising Sessions, Train the Trainer Modules, Conferences and Events

2. Consulting and capacity building, including: Community Organizing and Network Building, Program Development and Curriculum Design, Strategic Planning and Facilitation, Workforce Development, Volunteer Training and Coordination, Program Evaluation.
