The area of relevance of sport for healthy and sustainable cities has not been explored in depth so far. The study aims to examine the sport dimensions and sport factors that contribute to healthy and sustainable city frameworks, through a literature review and analysis of international institutions' policy documents and metrics. The study will contribute to broader understanding of the role of sport within the framework of healthy and sustainable cities and creates the paradigm of future considerations of the relevance of sport from the perspective of city management and policy maker. The novelty of this study is the use of primary sources (strategic documents) for analysis, being a relevant step for the further process of identifying the sport role towards healthy and sustainable cities.
