Sport Resolutions is currently participating in a project titled: Teaching Awareness of Ethical Governance in Sport (TAGS). The TAGS project is supported by the Erasmus+ programme and was developed in response to an EU motion (2016/2143 (INI)) on an integrated approach to Sport Policy: good governance, accessibility and integrity. The motion arose out of recent scandals affecting sport at the European and international levels.   

The objective of the TAGS project is to develop an undergraduate module in ethical sport governance to enhance the skills and employability of students seeking future employment in the sport sector. The module could also be used for short courses and continuing professional development. Sport Resolutions was selected as a result of our exclusive case study material drawn from years of providing dispute resolution services for sport in the UK.

We are working in conjunction with four other partners on the TAGS project:  the University of Gloucestershire (UK), Palacky University (Czech Republic), the University of Thessaly (Greece) and the University of Transylvania (Romania). Over the last year we have travelled to Gloucester in the UK in October 2017 and Olomouc in the Czech Republic in June 2018 for transnational partner meetings. Our last meeting took place last week in Trikala, Greece.  

The duration of the project is 28 months. It was launched in October 2017 and is due for completion in January 2020.
