Following the success of the Commonwealth Sports Development Conference in September 2006, the 2008 conference will continue to focus on a range of sport and development initiatives across the Commonwealth.
The two-day conference, which will be workshop based, takes place at the Mitchell Library, Glasgow, Scotland on 12 & 13 June. The conference is designed for sports practitioners of all levels and policy makers, and will focus on how sport and development initiatives can raise levels of grass-roots participation and create pathways to excellence both here in the UK and in the developing world.
Mike Fennell, President of the CGF, Sue Campbell (UK Sport), Stefan Howells, International Chief Executive SCORE (South Africa) and Miriam Moyo, President, National Olympic Committee of Zambia will all contribute to the conference. There will also be panel debates, plenary sessions and plenty of opportunity for questions and answers to challenge the leading experts, policy makers and practitioners.
