As global challenges like #ClimateChange and #Inequality demand more attention, the role of sports in shaping these conversations grows. Sports organisations and athletes are uniquely positioned to #influence not only the field but also societal values and actions. Our analysis in collaboration with Sport Positive reveals how public discussions around 10 major sports shed light on this influence, posing critical questions: 1️⃣ What true impact do sports organisations and athletes have in driving positive change? 2️⃣ How can this influence be maximised to foster societal improvements? Our report explores the evolving role of sports in promoting #sustainability and social issues. Media are increasingly covering these topics, yet public engagement often falls short of expectations. While football garners the highest media interest, niche sports like sailing and motorsport achieve notably higher reach on sustainability-related content. Cross-sport collaborations and influencer involvement prove especially impactful, highlighting the power of sports as a platform for societal discourse and positive change. 📝 Missed the download?
