Introduction: The Integrity - Sustainability in Sport Framework

While the concepts of integrity and sustainability in sport have attracted significant attention by all academia, policy, and practice over the past few years, they have been discussed independently, and without any efforts for potential links between them to be identified. In this chapter, we argue that these two concepts are fundamentally interlinked, with interconnections noted in each of their dimensions, as they are detailed in the rest of this book. As such, in this chapter, we introduce the five dimensions of Integrity in sport model, before we present the Integrity - Sustainability in Sport Framework and how it can be operationalized in the world of sport.
