Addressing contemporary agendas for health and physical education, physical activity and sport
The International Association for Physical Education in Higher Education ( AIESEP ) 2022 World Congress addresses contemporary agendas for sustainable, socially just and inclusive Health and Physical Education ( HPE ), Physical Activity ( PA ) and Sport. The AIESEP community understands that HPE , PETE , PA and Sport are continuing to adapt to COVID conditions which challenge our knowing, being and doing across all levels of policy, curriculum and professional practice. This World Congress encourages exploration of the longer term challenges and opportunities that are emerging in different national, cultural and professional settings. A consequence of our adaptation to COVID is to push the boundaries of a "new normal" by offering a hybrid in-person and online conference.
Griffith University is proud to be the Gold partner with AIESEP to bring you the AIESEP 2022 World Congress.
