Part 1: Preface
In Part 1, Julie Stevens, PhD, Professor of Sport Management at Brock University, briefly frames the Safe Sport 2nd Edition within current academic, professional and community contexts. She builds upon the notion of the “Empty Chair” to now explain the importance of building education and awareness through this edition’s varied contributions. Stevens notes how each author offers insight about ways we can implement the necessary radical organizational and systemic change if safe sport progress is to be made not only within Canadian sport but within sport systems throughout the world.
