I am an award-winning, esteemed senior leader and academic in higher education and TEDx Speaker with 30+ years of significant and original praxis in the areas of sport, innovation and education. I have a very strong background in leading strategic planning and designing in complex educational environments. Coupled with this, I have an extraordinary passion and commitment to educating people in how to use innovation to solve wicked problems.
My experience is built on the foundations of two recent university-centric strategic leadership roles: Head of the School of Education at University College Cork and Chair of the UCC Academic Council Learning and Teaching Committee. My experience in these roles has been augmented by my two current global leadership roles as the elected President of AIESEP (Association Internationale des Écoles Superiéure d’Éducation Physique) (https://aiesep.org/) and the elected Vice-President of CEREPS (European Council for Research in Physical Education and School Sport) (https://www.cereps.eu/). I have been recently appointed as CIGEPS Observer by UNESCO (The Intergovernmental Committee for Physical Education and Sport)
I am a world-leading researcher in sport, innovation and education, having been awarded c.32 funded grants. I currently lead a number of international research projects and have galvanised a powerful UCC research laboratory (StrategicDesign@UCC) to work on these projects. Under my leadership, in 2022 we were awarded membership of the prestigious Global Design Thinking Alliance (www.gdta.org). I am a prolific researcher with a strong record of peer-reviewed publications and lead author on best-selling Social Personal and Health Education books for teachers and pupils (2007 - present).
As an example of my leadership in learning and teaching in in innovation and education in 2020 and 2022, I was awarded €2.25m in Human Capital Initiative funding to co-found the Postgraduate Diploma in Innovation through Design Thinking across the School of Education and Cork University Business School in UCC (https://www.ucc.ie/en/study/postgrad/taughtcourses/hci/innovationthroughdesignthinking/). Building on this, we have just launched the Master of Arts in Innovation through Design Thinking. With regard to my civic engagement, I continue to teach design thinking and innovation across the trisector through design thinking master classes delivered locally in Ireland and internationally. To date, I have delivered over 100 such playshops in the education and sport sectors.
I am committed to social innovation and have a strong record in founding leading-edge initiatives:
Co-Founder Master of Arts in Innovation through Design Thinking (2024);
Co-Founder Postgraduate Diploma in Innovation through Design Thinking (2020);
Founder of the annual Global Design Challenge for Sport and Physical Activity (April, 2020 - present) (https://gdc2022.devpost.com/);

All Island All Active Dr. Fiona Chambers and Professor Deirdre Brennan (University of Ulster) founded All Island All Active in November 2012. The new All Island All Active cross border body provides leading academics, practitioners, politicians, policy makers, parents, active sport participants and strategic industry partners a space to collaborate to develop common pedagogical (teaching and learning) strategies in Sport and Physical Activity settings across schools, clubs and communities on the Island of Ireland. It is argued that by working together through AIAA, we can be more effective in our shared aim of encouraging individuals and communities to become and remain physically active across the lifespan. This unique body of stakeholders have committed to a unified approach to the promotion of quality lifelong Sport and Physical Activity. Importantly, this enabling platform will enable stakeholders to pool their knowledge and expertise to develop effective evidence-based pedagogical strategies that can have genuine impact in supporting the public to initiate and maintain participation in Sport and Physical Activity throughout their lives. AIAA is distinct on the Island of Ireland in its commitment to innovative multidisciplinary and robust research shaped by the needs of public, private, community and voluntary sectors. A recent AIAA funding workshop rallied leaders from the Sport and Physical Activity industry responsible for inspiring, steering, funding, managing, coordinating, volunteering, researching and reporting on participation in Sport and Physical Activity. This engagement led to the design of a unified AIAA focus; ‘‘To improve levels of physical activity across the Island of Ireland through effective teaching and learning strategies: 12% increase in physical activity levels in 12 years. | |
Project Draíocht: I am a member of the UCC Steering Committee of Project Draíocht. The Project comprises a university hub of four universities - UCC, Cork Institute of Technology and Institute of Technology Tralee and Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, Connecticut.
