The aim of this policy brief is to provide sport policymakers and the sport community as a whole with an overview of and comments on some of the most urgent questions in Danish sport with a specific focus on social aspects of sport governance. It is based on research which has explored the overall organisational structure and relationships be-tween sport governing bodies and their membership at local, regional and national lev-els. This research has furthermore considered the involvement of women in these net-works particularly in decision-making capacities, as well as best practices for managing dispute resolution and maintaining public confidence.
