Beyond the Bike and the role of sport in an economy
7th January 2016
The Beyond the Bike project continues post-Christmas with a theme that might appeal to those of us with New Year's Resolutions to "be more active"! Stuart's blog post this week focuses on the role that education and sport can play in rebuilding the Zimbabwean economy. To accompany that blog post, we have designed a supporting lesson resource that introduces students to the use of cost-benefit analysis for assessing the impact of major sporting events in both LEDCs and MEDCs - click here to download the free Sports Event PDF lesson resource.
