2024 – SPORT ALUMNI NETWORK 2: Dr. HELEN SYMONS

Dr. HELEN SYMONS (TIAS Short Program; and Expert Guest Speaker on Research Project Management Course-Qualitative research) – Senior lecturer in sport management and development at the University of Portsmouth (UK).

CONGRATULATIONS Helen Sensei on the BOOK CHAPTER (The Influence of Kano Jigoro: From Higher Education to the Japanese Olympic Movement; and Taro Obayashi sensei) in ‘HANDBOOK OF SPORT AND JAPAN’.

“The privilege of learning on the TIAS short course enabled me to learn about Japanese sporting culture. This book chapter allowed me to further explore my interests in the Japanese culture around sport and the Olympic movement. Working alongside my Japanese coauthor provided me with additional insight and depth into the cultural representation and history being discussed in our chapter.”
