We are looking for a PhD candidate who wants to design, develop, and test educational tools to foster safe sports environments. Interested? Feel welcome to apply!
The disclosure of several high-profile cases of child sexual abuse in sports around the world has drawn renewed public attention to the sports setting as a conducive context for interpersonal violence against children. Interpersonal violence against and between children has a major impact on children’s well-being. However, it does not happen in a vacuum; it often includes many bystanders (besides the perpetrators and victims) who could potentially intervene. Effective bystander interventions can turn individuals at sports clubs into “moral exemplars”. Moral exemplars are potential future bystanders who are equipped to demonstrate moral behaviour in the face of difficulty, as such they are more likely to intervene in harmful situations and show perpetrators how their intended or unintended behaviours cause harm.
