Abstract
Equestrian sport is part of the cultural good and even if there is a closeness to nature, daily practices can make a lasting difference. The present thesis deals with the question of whether and how a riding association can establish sustainable measures in horse management. Based on the three pillars of sustainability, different areas of horse management daily practices will be analyzed. This investigation employs a mixed-method approach in order to receive a comprehensive view of the equestrian associations environment and practices. A literature review provides a broader picture of how equestrian sport is perceived in societal, economic and ecological content.
