In the early decades of the 21st century sport advocates began using sport as a tool for development in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMIC). Despite sport-in-development's rapid growth, there is a vacancy of scholarly research; this study contributes academic research that can deepen the understanding of sport-in-development in the larger development field. The purpose of this study is to reflect on the recent movement of sport-in-development, through the lens of United Nations human rights and development policy. A hermeneutic study of seven United Nations (UN) human rights documents was conducted to answer the research question, to what extent do human rights, according to the United Nations policy, inspire, encourage and shape sport-in-development? Four important themes were found in answering this research question. 1. Every human being has inherent dignity; 2. There are fundamental human rights and freedoms afforded all peoples; 3. The UN's role of the promotion of "social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom" (CRC, 1989); and 4. The promotion, maintenance and growth of international peace. Findings of this study connect the themes found in the UN human rights documents and the goals of sport-in-development proponents; both UN human rights and sport-in-development are focused on human development and capacity building as the foundation of developing communities and countries. Building programs founded on these themes can build continued support for sport in the larger development landscape, and build much needed connections between development organizations.
