Manage episode 318834409 series 3161069
Dr Philippa Velija is Head of School for Social Sciences, Psychology and Education and Associate Professor in the Sociology of Sport at Solent University, Southampton. She is author of Women’s Cricket and Global Processes which explores the development and emergence of the global game in relation to broader changes in gender relations. She has also co-edited Gender Equity in UK Sport Leadership and previously co-edited Figurational Research in Sport, Leisure and Health. Her research, which has been published in the Sociology of Sport Journal and International Review for Sociology of Sport and Leisure Studies, has focused on a sociological analysis of women’s experience in a range of sport, leisure and education settings. In this podcast, I asked Philippa about her latest book, and about her previous research on cricket. Because of Philippa’s successful career in senior management, we also talked about her journey, her advice to others, as well as her current and future research plans.
