Sport and Peace

Considering the vast amount of studies, research and literature on peace-building and the growing field of peace studies, there is very little published, peer-reviewed literature on sport and peace. The few studies on sport and peace that do exist are not grounded in peace-building theory or theoretical frameworks.

The peace-building literature also stresses the importance of women and girls as stakeholders in any successful peace-building process and efforts should be made to ensure that studies on the role of sport within this process takes into account the role of women and girls as well. The participation of people with disabilities in sport-for-peace programming remains unexplored.
