We invite abstracts of papers to be presented at the conference. There are several ways to present your work at TGfU2020 and the various options available to you are outlined here.

The three major themes are inclusion, integration and implementation.

On June 17-20, 2020, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) will host the next AIESEP International Conference.

The priorities are to share current research on the following four axes: quality physical education and sport, promoting physical literacy, assessment praxis, innovation in teacher preparation and professional development.

Conceived during an interdisciplinary project built in collaboration between the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) and the Université de Lausanne (UNIL), which focused on professionalisation processes in Belgium and Switzerland, our ambition with this conference is to capture the varieties of football professionalisation across Europe, or rather all the several processes often mixed behind or beyond the word and the multiple definitions of “professionalisation”.

Following the three previous editions of the EAPS/BPSA conference—Prague (2011), Nancy (2014), and Nijmegen (2017)—the 4th EAPS conference will be held in Paris, in collaboration with (BPSA) and the French-Speaking Society of the Philosophy of Sport (SFPS). We welcome papers from sport philosophy scholars on all aspects of the philosophy of sport and from scholars who have not researched or published in this area before, but have an interest in it.

At this year’s conference, we want to focus on exploring strategies to improve health pathways, grounded in the social dimensions and cultural settings of physical activity. This includes the organizational strategies of national and international governing bodies of sport that regulate a large deal of participation in leisure and elite sport on the local, national and international levels.
