在蓬勃发展的体育与发展领域，“榜样”已被用作增加女孩和妇女参与体育运动的重要因素。植根于非洲体育发展的经验，并在赞比亚妇女的体育和拳击手，以斯帖Phiri的案例研究，本文探讨了话语周围使用的“榜样”，并开始详细阐述了一个理论，围绕使用这个迄今为止难以捉摸的概念，特别是在体育发展项目和方案的经验，有性别的具体成果。我们考虑榜样如何发挥作用，以鼓励和维持女性参与，以及促进实现体育和发展项目的目标，包括（积极）改变性别角色和期望。最后，我们展望了未来研究的前景，并对榜样作为一种工具的局限性进行了批判性反思，特别是考虑到现实世界的入侵。
In the burgeoning field of sport and development, ‘role models’ have been invoked as an important element to increase the participation of girls and women in sport. Grounded in the African sport-in-development experience and in a case study of Zambian women's sports and the boxer, Esther Phiri, this essay examines the discourse around the use of ‘role models’ and begins to elaborate a theory around the use of this hitherto elusive notion specifically in the experience of sport-in-development projects and programmes which have gender-specific outcomes. We consider how role models may function to encourage and sustain female involvement, as well as to contribute to achieving goals set for sport and development projects, including (positively) altering gender roles and expectations. We conclude with a look towards promising areas of future research as well as a critical reflection on the limits of role models as a tool, especially given real-world intrusions.
