Project CARE (Census of Athlete Rights Experiences) aims to ensure that the rights of child athletes are promoted and protected throughout world sport.
The project involves a 2-year (Jan 2019 - Dec 2020) pilot study of the childhood experiences in organised sport of professional athletes affiliated with the World Players Association.
The study will result in a set of recommendations to sport governing bodies, governments and player associations to make sport safer for child athletes through increased standards, transparency and accountability.
