Research to Practice Symposium is intended to bring together researchers, practitioners and youth to work together on common issues and catalyze continued collaboration.
This year, we’ll be flipping the script and bringing Practice to Research. The event will discuss the case for the incorporation of sport and movement to strengthen employment training outcomes. New perspectives on the role that movement-based learning and sport for development can play in youth employment and employment training will be explored.
As a practitioner, you can leverage the expertise of researchers to help you answer the important questions from program evaluation and improvement to impact reporting. As a researcher, you can get to know the most current practices, and most prevalent issues in the community that can help you develop impactful research questions and partnerships. And as a young person you have access and space through the event to bring a youth lens into the conversation. Specifically, these will be explored through cross learning, and discussing the case for the incorporation of sport and movement to strengthen employment training outcomes.
