Abstract
The study aims to develop a framework for promoting an environmental culture in sports based on sustainable development indicators. It utilized qualitative research methods, collecting data from human and information resources. Participants were purposefully selected to ensure theoretical saturation, and research tools included interviews and library study. The validity of the instrument was confirmed through legal and scientific standards.
The final framework consists of six categories: causal conditions, underlying factors, intervening factors, the central phenomenon, strategies, and consequences. Causal conditions encompass the requirements and assumptions of a green and sustainable sports culture, while underlying factors include the context and capacity needed for such a culture. Intervening factors involve the challenges faced in establishing this culture. The central phenomenon is the green and sustainable sports culture, while strategies focus on approaches to promote it. Consequences refer to the results and functions of implementing the culture.
The study concludes that implementing the framework will help reduce environmental problems, promote sustainable development, and improve educational and socio-cultural functions within sports. It will contribute to the overall development plans of the country and satisfy stakeholders and the sports community. The framework serves as a guide for officials to take effective measures toward an environmental culture in sports and ultimately achieve sustainable development in the field.
