Participant perceptions of HAT TRICKTM Cricket
Individuals from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds frequently experience complex health barriers arising from migration related factors and cultural differences within their new communities. Men with South Asian backgrounds in Australia represent a group particularly affected by these intersecting factors in addition to gender-related influences. In response, HAT TRICKTM Cricket, a culturally adapted health promotion interv…
Drawing strength
This study explored changes in understanding and self-perception among participants involved in the Tidda Talk programme (i.e. a culturally tailored physical activity and psychosocial education intervention for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women), focusing on its influence on mental health, social and emotional wellbeing, and health beliefs. Due to its cultural alignment, the arts-based research method of body mapping was used to e…
Designing Gender-Responsive Health Promotion Programs for Men
Over the past decade, there has been an increased emphasis on tailoring men’s health promotion programs. To optimize outcomes, participatory action research that involves and elicits feedback from end-users has been highlighted as important to creating gender-responsive interventions. In this scoping review, we examine (a) how participatory action research has been used to design health promotion interventions for men and (b) what constitutes a g…
Men’s Preferences for Language and Communication in Mental Health Promotion
Tailored language and communication strategies underpin men's engagement with public health initiatives. The aim of this study was to explore men's preferences for language and communication in mental health promotion and provide recommendations for current and future programs. A sequential mixed-methods design was used including five focus groups and 21 individual interviews with 64 men. Interpretive description was used to inductively derive th…
Handbook of Sport and International Development
This chapter is written from the distinct perspective of father and son who have worked in and around the world of sport for peace and reconciliation – for 30 and 13 years respectively, both on the ground and at study. In this contribution, we consider the real and potential capacity of sport as a vehicle for building and sustaining peace in the context of societies that are deeply fractured and which, resulting from these fissures, have experien…

Co-designing a health promotion program for Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander girls
Despite progression in the ethical and methodological conduct of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health research, disparities still pervade, indicating limitations in knowledge translation. One identified gap is a lack of documented experiences detailing how ethical guidelines may be practically applied. This paper aims to (i) describe the research processes involved in co-designing a physical activity and psychosocial health program for Ab…
Connecting Australian Masculinities and Culture to Mental Health
Masculinities and culture are intertwined and have significant implications for men's mental health. This study aimed to explore influences of Australian masculinities and culture on men's mental health. Five focus groups were conducted with men ( N = 43) living in New South Wales, Australia. Three overarching themes were identified: (1) a history of strength and self-reliance: taketh as we are, she'll be right, (2) social and geographical divide…
Routledge Handbook of Sport and Covid-19
This chapter scrutinises the impact of COVID-19 on disability sport. The chapter starts by discussing the various discourses and commentaries on disability sport and culture in analysing how a more accessible and inclusive future can be developed. Some of the key questions addressed in this chapter include: How is COVID-19 furthering inequalities for disabled people in sport? Are there aspects of disability culture, documented in and outside of s…
Netball Shoots for Physical and Mental Wellbeing in Samoa
Sport-for-development programs claim to address key determinants of recreational physical activity participation and subsequent development outcomes in low-income settings. We conducted a natural experiment with pre-post measures taken from women in the 12 villages in Samoa, some of which voluntarily participated in the sport-for-development intervention. The intervention comprised a six-week netball league delivered by local volunteers who atten…
Exploring Sport and Intergroup Relations in Fiji
There is a key tension associated with ethnographic explorations into the lives of people in the Global South - 'outsider' researchers from the Global North who lack experience of the environments they are seeking to understand. A considered response, therefore, is for scholars to seek physical immersion in a field-to live among those they are trying to understand. Such ethnographic inquiries are optimal when researchers have the capacity to enga…
Sport-for-Development in the South Pacific Region
As the field of sport-for-development (SFD) has developed, there has been increasing debate over the ability of SFD programs to effect lasting structural change on target communities. Highlighting the barriers to SFD program delivery in five Pacific Island nations, in this paper we argue that numerous challenges emerging at macro-, meso-, and microlevels must be explored, understood, and accounted for to enact structural change. Building on thema…

Critical Issues in Global Sport Management
Sports-related concussion is an important and complex issue, but it is not a new phenomenon. Meehan and Bachur (2009) traced early forms of sports-related concussion to 776 B.C. in the sports of wrestling and fist fighting. The physical risks of contact and collision sports (Luntz, 1980) and challenges of managing injuries (Mitten, 1993), particularly return-to-play or practice decisions, are reoccurring themes across sport, across jurisdictions …
League Bilong Laif
League Bilong Laif (LBL) is a sport-for-development (SFD) programme that was established in 2013 as a three-way partnership between the Australian Government, the Papua New Guinea (PNG) Government (Department of Education) and the Australian Rugby League Commission (National Rugby League). As a contribution to addressing low rates of school attendance and significant problems with anti-social behaviour within PNG communities, LBL was designed to …
Sport for Development
Despite the significant increase of published research in sport-for-development (SFD), to date there have been no attempts to rigorously review and synthesize scholarly contributions in this area. To address this issue, we conducted an integrative review of SFD literature to portray an overarching and holistic picture of the field. Through a comprehensive literature analysis following Whittemore and Knafl’s (2005) five-step process, we provide ev…

The benefits and limitations of using cricket as a sport for development tool in Samoa
This study investigates benefits and challenges associated with the use of sport - in this case cricket - as a community development tool in Samoa. This Pacific Island nation, like others in the region, has been the focus of various development programs in the post-colonial era, with developed economy neighbours like Australia and New Zealand providing aid funding. Some of that has involved sport as a development tool, underpinned either by fundi…

Sport for Development and Peace in Divided Societies
The idea of using sport for social, cultural and community development has been promoted for decades; however, only limited empirical research can be found that analyses the strategic potential of sport projects in contributing to conflict resolution, reconciliation and peace building in deeply divided societies. This study concentrates upon the experiences of a number of Football for Peace (F4P) projects operating in Israel in 2009. It identifie…
Sport events and ethnic reconciliation
Reconciliation is about bringing disparate communities together and creating the communication necessary to reduce intergroup barriers, generate understanding, and connect with others to achieve a peaceful togetherness. This article investigates the role of sport events in contributing to reconciliation and inclusive social change between disparate communities in ethnically divided Sri Lanka. Following an interpretive mode of enquiry, findings su…
