LiA Week 1 (St Lucia) Reflections
Sharing my initial experiences and impressions of my LiA, and considering how I can best build a coaching framework that serves the local context.
About Arthur
I am a History student at Durham University, in my second year of the Laidlaw programme. My first year project research explored citizenship education in relation to social cohesion, and sporting provision supporting refugee and asylum seeker integration. Following the publication of my research report, I am now a member of the Academic Advisory Group to the All Party Parliamentary Group for Political and Media Literacy. I also now work within UK refugee sports provision trying to drive positive change in the sector, through starting my own initiative in Durham, and spotlighting and networking with projects nationwide, through an article series I edit for ConnectSport. This summer, I will be doing my LiA in St Lucia, producing a coaching framework working with United Through Sport, to improve their delivery of sports teaching to local children from underprivileged backgrounds.
