The Great Sporting Pivot from Global North to Global South - What it Means for Europe?

The world is amid dramatic changes – global, digital, environmental – which are having profound consequences for all aspects of life. Nowhere is this more evident than in sport, where the established global order is being upended as countries such as Saudi Arabia and China put the industry at the centre of government policy and programmes of national transformation. The world of sport is consequently pivoting, as is the world in general, from the Global North to the Global South, evidence of which can be seen in where the likes of Formula 1 races and FIFA World Cups are staged. This is beginning to have a profound impact upon Europe and European sporting hegemony. Inward investment and capital flows are impacting the balance of power, and governance models across European sport. Whilst new sports properties such as the esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia are, for example, inducing new forms of sports consumption in Europe. Sport, most notably in Europe, is thus at an important moment in its history. This presentation will examine the changes now taking place, highlight the implications of them for sport in Europe, and identify the responses that Europe may choose to instigate.

Lisa Barnett

Dr. Lisa Barnett is a Professor of Physical Activity and Health at Deakin University’s Institute for Physical Activity and Nutrition, Australia. With an academic career spanning over 25 years, she is recognized globally as the leading researcher in motor skills (Expertscape) and is a driving force in shaping how we understand, assess, and promote physical literacy across the lifespan.

How Can Physical Literacy Work Towards Equality in Sport and Physical Activity?

This presentation will discuss physical literacy in relation to equality in sport and physical activity. Dr. Barnett was one of three researchers who led the process of creating the definition of physical literacy in Australia and the Australian Physical Literacy Framework for the Australian Sports Commission. Physical literacy was defined as the physical, psychological, social and cognitive competencies one should develop to enhance lifelong physical activity. The Australian Physical Literacy Framework includes 30 elements within these four broader domains, for example ‘movement skills’ in the physical domain and ‘collaboration’ in the social domain. Dr. Barnett subsequently was contracted by the Australian Sports Commission to develop the Physical Literacy in Children Questionnaire (PL-C Quest) to collect self-reported data from children on these elements. Design principles included making the central character of the pictorial images relatable for all children regardless of gender identity or ethnicity. The tool has now been requested by researchers from 27 countries across 18 language groups. Emerging data suggests good evidence of validity in different cultural contexts, albeit with context relevance variations. Implementation testing in school and sport settings shows that assessment using the PL-C Quest can lead to improved program planning for teachers and coaches. School and sport settings reach many children - boding well for equality - but to truly achieve equality, individual physical literacy capacities need to be considered in the context of enhancing environmental design and providing broader opportunities.

The (Un)Level Playing Field: Sport, Inequality and the Myth of Inclusivity

Sport is commonly promoted as a tool for social inclusion; a way to enable individuals, communities and societies to reach their full potential irrespective of cultural identity and circumstance, and challenge. Yet, simply promoting inclusivity or having inclusive policies for sport is not enough to ensure inclusive practice. Deeper and more persistent attention is needed in  addressing long-term and entrenched exclusionary tactics and marginalising processes in sport. This presentation critically examines the myth of inclusivity and highlights three key and overlapping issues connected to tokenism, failure to address complex systemic exclusionary issues and oversimplistic notions of intersectionality that reinforce the imaginary of inclusivity in sport and ensure that sport takes place in an unlevel playing field.
