Tracking Diversity in the BC Sport Sector

This report and accompanying summary highlight that an increasingly common strategy to advance diversity, equity and inclusion efforts – within and beyond sport – is through data collection. In a 2022 viaSport sector survey, when asked what types of data collection would be helpful to them, the majority of respondents identified demographic data related under-represented groups. This demonstrates the B.C. sport sector’s desire to use data collection to support their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) strategies. Drawing on resources from the sport sector, business, government, healthcare, and consulting firms, this toolkit offers tips for sport organizations to inform demographic data collection among the organization’s membership.
