How you play the game: Papers from The First International Conference on Sports and Human Rights

How you play the game: Papers from The First International Conference on Sports and Human Rights 

The following collection of presentations includes all papers that were submitted to the conference organisers prior to the printing deadline. While a number of the conference presentations are not represented in this document the material published here is a good representation of the range of topics covered during the conference.

The diversity of topics tackled in the papers presented here is a testament to the wide-ranging impact of sport on human rights. A number of the authors have challenged current sporting practices and called for sport to be more cognizant of human rights issues, while other papers articulate how sport has assisted in promoting understanding of and respect for human rights.
