Dr. Cheryl Mallen focuses her research on sport facility management and sport event management, along with environmental sustainability (ES) performance. Through researching these topics, she has generated an ES measurement tool for sport events, examined best practices, challenges, trends and interpretations of ES by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). In addition, Dr. Mallen has studied environmental advances in sport facility renewable energy and is concerned with the advance of ES educational practices within the sport management academy. Specifically, Dr. Mallen is interested in studying the required ES competencies students need for their future. A pivotal element of Dr. Mallen’s research is the development of a framework for debating the future of ES in sport, published in the Sport Management Review. Additionally, her research manuscripts can be found in other sport journals, including the Journal of Sport Management and the European Sport Management Quarterly.
