A roadmap is a route.
Five areas. One decade ahead.
Follow the India–Australia Roadmap for Sports Collaboration as a journey: capacity, science, major events, industry and women in sport: from the 2023 MoU through Ahmedabad 2030 and Brisbane 2032.
Independent plain-English guide: not a government publication. Official text always takes precedence.
- Sports cooperation MoU
- Roadmap welcomed by both PMs
- Ahmedabad Commonwealth Games
- Brisbane Olympic & Paralympic Games
Five stations on the bilateral route.
Each letter is an official focus area. Open a station for PlayForward’s plain-English reading, linked actions and community notes.

Six independent pillars plotted beside five official areas.
Statuses describe PlayForward’s own reviewed work only: never official government progress. Khelo India appears as a cross-cutting grassroots lane, not a sixth official area.
These statuses track PlayForward’s own reviewed involvement in each Roadmap action. They are not government progress and do not mean the bilateral Roadmap is idle. “No PlayForward record yet” means a reviewer has not published verified evidence for that action. When a reviewer records a note (and a source link from “In design” onward), the label updates automatically for visitors.

A note on implementation
The Roadmap describes a pragmatic, outcomes-focused approach. Activities depend on relevant institutions, available resources and arrangements developed case by case. A listed priority is not, by itself, proof that a programme or partnership is available.
Independence: PlayForward is an AISECS initiative. It is not an official government framework, a party to the Roadmap or an endorsed representative of any government or Games organising body.
