Fenntarthatóság a sportmenedzsmentben

Absztrakt

The importance of the relationship between sports events and sustainability is increasingly recognized and investigated within the scientific community, as growing attention is directed towards ensuring that sports events not only promote competition but also encourage sustainable development. The aim of the study is to present the sustainability management of domestic sports events as a best practice, with particular attention to the consideration of the United Nations’ sustainable development principles. The research employs secondary research methods, including a literature review on the interconnections between sports and sustainability, as well as an analysis of the sustainability regulations and statutes of sports federations. Furthermore, local sports events are presented as case studies of best practices in sustainability management. The results indicate that international sports federations are progressively adopting the United Nations’ sustainable development principles, and several sports federations are engaging in the organization of sustainable sports events, extending this activity to their member organizations. Based on these best practices, it can be inferred that sustainable sports events are becoming increasingly inherent to the nature of sports events, thereby contributing to social and environmental sustainability.
