The Refugee Council of Australia received a grant from the NSW Department of Sport and Recreation to undertake a project exploring the role of sport in assisting refugee settlement, with a specific focus on the NSW context. The objective of the project is to “draw lessons from across Australia on the involvement of refugees in sport and explore how those lessons can be best applied in NSW,” (RCOA 2008b). The ultimate aim of the project is to build models of best practice for involving refugees in sport, and develop recommendations for encouraging increased participation by refugees in sport.
