Guide on good governance principles through social responsibility
In order to contribute to the improvement of good governance in sports organisations in KMOP – Social Action and Innovation Centre developed, along with 4 social organisations working in the EU, a comprehensive guide, aiming at enhancing the capacities and awareness of sports clubs/organisations, professional and semi-professional sport teams and clubs on implementing good governance principles through social responsibility.
The GoSport guide provides the necessary information on how sports organisations interpret, manage and prioritise social responsibility issues – especially in terms of combating violence, tackling racism, discrimination and intolerance, and encouraging social inclusion and equal opportunities – how organisational governance influences social responsibility and how social responsibility is communicated within the organisations. Furthermore, this Guide provides tools to for-profit and non-profit sports organisations for understanding the relationships among the organisations, its stakeholders and society, and integrating socially responsible organisational governance practices.
If you work in the sport industry and you want to improve your knowledge on how to promote a more inclusive society through CSR activities, download the GoSport guide here.
The GoSport project has a duration of two years and is implemented in Greece, Bulgaria, Italy, Croatia and Cyprus by KMOP – Social Action and Innovation Centre (Project Coordinatior), Bulgarian Sports Development Association, CESIE, IDOP and CARDET. For more information about the project, visit their website.
EFDN has developed a practitioner’s guide focusing on organisations in professional football that would like to develop a CSR strategy. You can find it on our Online Learning Platform here.
