Safer Sport: Evidence-Informed Tools for a Safer Sporting Community

Safer Sport is a collaboration between leading researchers across Australia working to reduce harm and strengthen safety, equity, and inclusion in sport. Our work brings together research, partnerships across government and sport, and lived experience to support organisations, volunteers, and communities.

This website is your one-stop place for:

Clear, practical resources you can use right away
Updates from research projects happening across the country
Evidence-informed tools to help prevent violence, discrimination, and inequity in sport
Reports, guides, and publications created with and for the sport sector

Our work is grounded in a national, multi‑university research program supported by an ARC collaboration. While the research team is based across several institutions, Safer Sport exists outside any single university so the work can grow, adapt, and evolve with the needs of the sector.
