Challenge accepted: sport as a tool for social change
We know sport and physical activity are good for our bodies and our health, but they’re also good for our mind. In this episode, we talk to Sarah Loh (the first female CEO of an AFL league) and discuss how sport can be used as a tool to create meaningful social connections, the importance of strong role models, as well as generating social change through the world of sport.
Show notes:
This interview was recorded during the current Victorian Coronavirus outbreak, in line with the Victorian Government’s COVID public health advice.
