We build better sports for a healthy and sustainable world.
SandSI envisions a sport sector that addresses its environmental and social impact, demonstrates accountability to its stakeholders and credibly leverages sports’ influence for people and planet.
Mission
We advocate and accelerate sustainability in and through sport.
SandSI builds, empowers and elevates the voice of a sport sustainability community that enhances more sustainable operations and practices in the sport sector and promotes healthy societies that have learnt to live within the boundaries of natural resources.
Our Goals
Connect
We build a collaborative community by connecting sport sustainability practitioners and professionals through facilitating peer-to-peer learning and sharing real-world solutions that drive lasting impact in sport operations and practices.
Facilitate
We facilitate knowledge transfer and access of sport sector stakeholders to a trusted network of expert consultants within our growing community to enhance more sustainable operations and practices in the sport sector.
Advocate
We elevate the voice of our sustainable sport community at the global policy stage by influencing evidence-based policy-making and helping the sport sector meet those policy targets to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, thus bridging the gap between policy and practice.
Influence
We aim to harness the power of sports towards healthier and more sustainable lifestyles while transforming consumption practices and the ways in which sport itself is consumed.
Our Work
Enabling platform to connect (community)
We connect our target groups by:
providing a platform to promote members’ services, products, etc.,
facilitating the transfer of knowledge, skills, competences, resources and tools, and
enabling peer-to-peer learning and training opportunities,
so they can take effective action towards enhancing sustainable sports operations and practices.
Elevating the voice of the sustainable sport community
We ensure that the community of sport sustainability professionals and practitioners is recognised as a credible and essential stakeholder in shaping evidence-based policy-making by communicating, disseminating research and engaging with policy processes.
Accelerating sustainability through sports
We forge strategic partnerships and innovation projects through cross-sector collaboration, pilot projects, and research initiatives.
