The Sport for Development Coalition is recruiting three new Board members.

The Coalition is a growing network of almost 200 organisations working collectively to maximise the positive contribution sport and physical activity can make to changing lives and improving communities.

According to an article on the Coalition's website, the new Board members "will help to champion our collaborative approach, provide leadership, share experience, and ensure oversight of our collective action".

It continued: "We are looking for a diversity of experience to help deliver our objective of ensuring more people and institutions recognise and value the role sport and physical activity can play in changing the lives of a diverse range of people and communities.

REPRESENTATIVE

"We want these benefits to be accessible to all, without fear of discrimination or barriers."

The Coalition says it will welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. It is working to achieve a fully gender-balanced and representative Board.

"We particularly encourage applications from people from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds, disabled people, people from the LGBT+ community, as these groups are currently under-represented across the Coalition’s governance structures."
