On one of the premier stages celebrating the powerful impact of sport around the world, a partnership of the University of Tennessee\u2019s Center for Sport, Peace, and Society has been named a Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award honoree at ESPN\u2019s Sports Humanitarian Awards.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The awards ceremony will take place July 17 in Los Angeles, one day prior to the ESPY (Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly) Awards and the Laureus Summit, presented by ESPN.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are truly honored to receive one of the Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Awards, and appreciate so much our partnership with the US Department of State and espnW that made it possible,\u201d said Sarah Hillyer, director of the CSPS. \u201cTogether and alongside brave and courageous women from all over the world, we are fulfilling our dream of leveraging the unique power of sport-based innovation to create a more equitable world for women and girls.”<\/p>\n

Established in honor of former ESPN commentator Stuart Scott, the ENSPIRE award honors the work of the Global Sports Mentoring Program (GSMP), a US Department of State and espnW initiative implemented by CSPS since its inception in 2012. The initiative has trained 99 international sports leaders from 53 countries during its gender-equality exchange programs. In addition to training participants in CSPS\u2019 Better World curriculum, the center has partnered these leaders with female executive mentors at top organizations such as ESPN, Google, NHL, Big East Conference, and Saatchi & Saatchi..<\/p>\n

The center has collaborated with more than 110 mentors to support participants as they\u2019ve developed plans for sport-based social change in their own communities, directly impacting more than 225,000 youth and women in the past six years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we conceived of what the GSMP could become, we believed wholeheartedly it had the potential to be more than a simple, government-funded program,\u201d said Hillyer. \u201cWe envisioned a global movement of changemakers, mentors, and emerging leaders, who believe in the power and potential of sport as a tool for social change at every level of society. Today we can celebrate together because this change is happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

The finalists and winners for the award were determined by a selection committee, which included Nick Keller, founder and president of Beyond Sport; Donald Lassere, CEO of the Muhammad Ali Center; Benita Fitzgerald Mosley, CEO of Laureus Sport for Good Foundation USA; Sab Singh, founder of Sports Doing Good; and Eli Wolff, director of the Power of Sport Lab and Sport and Society Initiative at Brown University.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe collective impact that this year\u2019s Sports Humanitarian Award nominees have made in their communities is nothing short of extraordinary,\u201d said Kevin Martinez, vice president of ESPN Corporate Citizenship. \u201cFrom empowering youth through sports, to fighting for social change, to resourcing those in need, these honorees showcase the incredible power of sports.\u201d<\/p>\n

Three GSMP alumnae will return to the United States to participate in the ceremony: Geraldine Bernardo, founder of the Sport Management Council of the Philippines (2012, Philippines); Dima Alardah, youth project coordinator for the Norwegian Refugee Council in Iraq (2014, Jordan); and Cynthia Coredo, program manager for Boxgirls Kenya (2015, Kenya).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe CSPS provided the impetus and wherewithal that enabled me to launch my own sport-for-development programs in my country,\u201d said Bernardo, who after participating in the GSMP returned home to launch two initiatives aimed at supporting vulnerable communities in the Philippines: Sports for Women\u2019s Empowerment and Employment Program (SWEEP) as well as RePLAY, ReLIVE and ReCREATE\u2014Building Community Resilience through Sports for Post-Disaster and Post-Conflict Areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven years later, the center continues to connect and involve the alumnae, ensuring that the \u2018sisters\u2019 will always have a web of support and opportunities for cross engagement.\u201d<\/p>\n

Highlights of the Sports Humanitarian Awards will be showcased during a one-hour program on ESPN, July 24, at 7 p.m. (ET).
