Presented by The Sport For Development Metrics & Evaluation Learning Lab.

Presentation overview:

In this presentation, we will share the findings and recommendations from a Sport for Development (S4D) working group that formed last year to explore how not for profit organisations delivering social programmes (‘practitioners’) and academic institutions/scholars can work together more effectively, particularly in relation to academic support for monitoring and evaluation. Two members of the working group, Tom Keyte and Ben Sanders, will present the practical steps and recommendations that emerged from the working group and resulted in the development of a short guide (which you can find here) and chapter in a volume of the Research Focus on Education and Sport series here.
