NSRA Advisory Group
An Advisory Group was established to support the activation of the National Sport Research Agenda (NSRA), aiming to build a more connected and cohesive sport research network and to unlock the value and benefits of sport.
Members were selected from across the sport research community to provide expertise, critical thinking, and guidance.
In partnership with the Australian Sports Commission, the Group worked to:
- Monitor and evaluate the NSRA and its key priority areas
- Collaborate on areas of shared interest to avoid duplication
- Encourage coordination and collaboration of research across the sector
A new advisory group will be established to support the next revision of the NSRA.
