@lempika7 @sportanddev @SportandPeaceUT @drjsimonrofe @GrantJarvie1 Eloquent and wonderful to read, as always! Thanks for sharing lsk.

[British Council Wales @BCouncil_Wales]

⚽🌍 Kick off!
We're attending the Aus - UK Sports Diplomacy Dialogue to discuss all things culture, collaboration, and sport. Here in Wales we know the powerful uniting role that sport can play in creating better relations and opportunities world-wide

Exciting times in Auld Reekie today! The SECOND AUK SD Dialogue and the first time the role of sport has been (seriously) reviewed in a bilateral relationship. Scotland is still, however, the best at sport ;-) @dfat @caitebyrne @CarolineRiot @BritishCouncil @EdinburghUni

@BM_Howard @caitebyrne @GavinMPrice @skelly8888 Thanks, Ben. Fascinating session, I thought. Much to learn from one another.

[Stuart Murray @StuarMurray]

Great opportunity to learn from the master's of Sports Diplomacy, think about bilateral SD diplomacy (UAE to Australia), and for knowledge exchange. Great initiative H.E. Al-Subousi. More evidence of the emerging SD Alliance! @caitebyrne @GavinMPrice @skelly8888

Well done! however, in your policy review, please acknowledge @GavinMPrice and I's Towards a Welsh Sports Diplomacy Report. Also, click on this link: https://t.co/Xd2NgioX72
I spent ten years writing on theory so SD is not "ill-defined"! Please also include. Thank you.

You said it, Sarah. Well done to the girls. They must have a good Board behind them! Spot on too: how do we bottle those exemplars, teach others, and grow! On ya, lassies. Great photos too!

[Professor Sarah Kelly OAM @skelly8888]

Today was up there with one of the best! Congrats @lionsaflw - such exemplars of sport - excellence, overcoming adversity, team first, humility- these women can lead any organisation. So proud!!!! #IamLion

[Stuart Murray @StuarMurray]

This too! Some people in sport really need @sportsdiplomacy (or, in this case, to step aside and let a black woman do the job; why not?)
