Abstract
Harbour Sport’s ActivAsian team hosted the 3rd Chinese Sport Forum – “Engaging Chinese Youth in Sport” on the 16th August 2012 at Massey University, Albany. Over 120 people attended, including at least 70 from various Chinese youth related organisations, representatives from 17 Regional Sport Organisation and clubs, aligned organisations, as well as Auckland Council Officers, Councillors, Local Board Representatives and Melissa Lee – Parliamentary Private Secretary, Ministry of Ethnic Affairs.
The main objectives of the forum were:
- Continue the two-way dialogue between the Chinese community and RSO’s in the Auckland North region
- Increasing RSOs awareness of the changing demographics of their community, especially in the age group of 16 to 25 where sports identify a decrease in participation
- Provide an opportunity for members of the Chinese community to communicate directly with RSOs about how to increase participation in their community
- Increase cultural understanding and awareness
