Dear readers,

There are over 100 million people forcibly displaced worldwide - what can the sport ecosystem do to respond better? We highlight three articles on this topic. The first illustrates the value of non-conventional approaches; the second focuses on how to increase the capacity of those working with refugees; the final article delineates how sports volunteering can play a crucial role. 

Remember to join our upcoming webinar on 1 December on how sport can better respond to the refugee crisis, in collaboration with the Sport for Refugees Coalition. 

We also feature an article in French about football and climate change, a recording of the Laureus SportLAB webinar where our global guidebook was discussed, and a job opening at the International Olympic Committee. Finally, we highlight the launch of two recent issues by the Journal of Sport for Development.

Happy reading,
The sportanddev team
