About the CMY Sports Network
|
The purpose of the CMY Sports Network meetings are to provide a regular forum in which workers who are engaged with culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) young people have the opportunity to meet and share information. Workers with specialised skills and knowledge impart current information about the sector to their colleagues, and individual workers are given the chance to network with other workers in the field.
CMY facilitates the Sports Network Meetings every three months. It is hoped that the meetings can provide support to workers by placing value on their contribution and enriching their work, as well as providing a mechanism for potential partnerships and collaborative work.
The issues and any outcomes of each meeting will be documented and distributed to the Network. CMY will also investigate and pursue appropriate strategies if any issues arise from the Network in relation to participation of CLD young people in sport and recreation.
The CMY Sports Network aims to:
|
- Identify gaps in the provision of sport and recreation to CLD young people;
|
- Provide information to Sport and Recreation Victoria and VicHealth about the issues sport and recreation providers find in engaging CLD young people;
|
- Identify issues relating to CLD young people’s access to sport and recreation;
|
- Identify strategies to engage CLD young people in sport and recreation; and
|
- Promote partnerships and collaboration between the sport sector, the community sector and the health sector.
