Produktbeschreibung
A single case study approach was utilised; the Asian German Sport Exchange Programme (A.G.S.E.P.) in Sri Lanka was used as the focus of this study. Findings suggested that the volunteers showed high levels of interest in sport; however the importance of the organisation being a sport organisation was only highlighted by those students from the fields of sport science, education or management. Non-sport related students highlighted the development aspect of the organisation as a significant factor for their engagement. This research suggests that sport for development volunteers expect instrumental outcomes from their participation, such as gaining new skills and knowledge, socialising, improving their CV, personal development, professional development, and cultural engagement.
