含羞草视频 the Chair

The Chair aims to advance knowledge, policy, and practice in how sport, physical activity and education are and may be utilised for the physical, personal, and social development of young people across the world. To pursue this aim, the Chair works closely with relevant stakeholders including young people, local communities, policymakers, NGOs, sport clubs and federations, corporations and small businesses, as well as fellow academics and students.

More specifically, the Chair seeks to:

• Build capacity and impact, as well as to provide advice and guidance, across these diverse stakeholders
• Undertake research and disseminate this work across different audiences
• Deliver teaching and training at 含羞草视频 and elsewhere
• Build networks and partnerships, including strengthening the links and collaborations of UNESCO Chairs in sport and other relevant fields.

The Chair also aims to support local, context-based, decentralised approaches to development that recognise cultural variety and difference, and which facilitate community-level shaping of development campaigns, activities, programmes and strategies.
