Given this, the UNESCO Chair on Sport for Development, Peace, and Environment (SDPE) and sportanddev began publishing quarterly research wraps in 2025.
This is not an exhaustive summary of all research but a snapshot of key themes. We acknowledge the limitations, including that it focuses on published research in English. We hope to expand to other languages in the future.
Nonetheless, we feel it is vital to share research with a broader audience, including those who do not have access to academic databases. It is crucial to bridge gaps between policy and practice and between research and reality.
sportanddev remains committed to open access publication, as all our information, tools and resources are freely available in English, French, Spanish and Arabic, including our MOOC on Sport for Sustainable Development.
