Title: | A university-sport partnership : towards a sustainable knowledge-transfer model | Authors: | Hanlon, C King, B Orbell, S |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | Australasian journal of university-community engagement, Spring 2012, v. 7, no. 2, p. 19-38 | Abstract: | In the 1980s Victoria University (Australia) and the Western Bulldogs Football Club (Australian rules) jointly initiated a range of projects which connected to teaching, research and/or community engagement. The initial ad hoc, informal and project-focused approach has subsequently progressed to more formal engagement with a clear strategy and implementation plan. This case study reports how a model that has been piloted with a sport organisation and incorporates business, science and community has formed a template for other university-community partnerships. The model builds collaboration and communications and provides a centralised referral point and templates which minimise duplication of effort. The paper highlights lessons learnt from the choice of a sport organisation to implement the model and its role in shaping university-community partnerships. | Keywords: | University stakeholder partnerships Partnership-focused model |
