The Power of Sport – guidance for strengthening cohesion and integration through sport, offers a user-friendly approach to measuring both the individual and community-wide impact of a project on social cohesion. It breaks down outcomes into short and long-term measures and outlines the conditions and context for maximising the possibility of improved social cohesion in a project’s design. It will build the confidence of commissioners, funders and delivery programmes so that their efforts and resources are more likely to bring about longer term change in our communities.
