Aims and Objectives of the ISAF Development Symposium

The first ISAF Development Symposium was held in Ireland in 2012. The event was presented as a forum where all ISAF Member National Authorities (MNAs) present could discuss areas of Training and Development related and input into the overall strategy of the International Sailing Federation. Over the years, the Development Symposium has become much, much more. Over the last 3 events in Oman, South Africa and in the USA, the structure of the event has broadened into a much more workshop oriented discussion driven event, where invited speakers and delegates themselves have had far more opportunity to shape the program to suit their individual needs.

International delegates at this important event receive presentations from a number of Experts in a variety of sport specific disciplines as well as taking part in break-away sessions where they are encouraged to interact with other delegates, often from other Nations. The ISAF Development Symposium directly compliments the work of the ISAF Development and Youth Committee, with the report from each event helping ISAF to gather valuable information on how its work can continue to develop, giving those delegates present from New or Emerging Nations a much needed chance to have their voices heard.
