2 What is CASRO? CASRO

3  progress active recreation activities that underpin the National Sport and Active Recreation Policy Framework (NSARPF)  identify strategic active recreation issues for consideration by CASRO  identify national priorities for active recreation and possible strategies to address issues raised by jurisdictions our vision

4 Issues identified  All jurisdictions agree that there is a lack of comprehensive data quantifying adults and children’s participation in active recreation.

5 issues identified  The NSARPF provides strong leadership for the strategic policy direction for sport, however, it only provides a high level strategic framework for recreation and there is no nationally agreed direction for addressing active recreation issues  This has resulted in:  the lack of a consistent model for State Departments of Sport and Recreation (SDSR) to support the recreation sectors in Australia  no cohesive national message for active recreation  the addition of recreation as a secondary part of the sport message

6 national definition  “Active recreation activities are those engaged in for the purpose of relaxation, health and wellbeing or enjoyment with the primary activity requiring physical exertion and the primary focus on human activity.”

7 The NARWG recognises the non sport ‘sectors’ of the sport and recreation industry as identified by the Australian Quality Framework, namely community recreation, outdoor recreation and fitness.

8 national priorities Participation: 1. Countering barriers to participation with a focus on increasing children’s participation and improving physical literacy. System sustainability: 2. Sharing effective models for engaging and working with the issues in active recreation sectors. 3. Developing national active recreation approaches including a national approach to promotion. System alignment and collaboration: 4. Fostering ongoing engagement with active recreation sectors to achieve outcomes. Research and data review: 5. Developing a national approach to data and research projects with a focus on: supporting the mega trends identified within the CSIRO’s ‘Future of Australian Sport’.
