Fearless Women in Sport
The Game Changers
Game On: Chapter 18 - The Girl Effect & Conclusion
What’s the difference between ‘sports development’ and ‘sport for development’ and how are organisations using sport as a tool to generate social change.
This chapter explores the powerful impact sport can have on the some of the most prevalent problems affecting women in the global South such as gender based violence, childhood marriage and lack of education opportunities.
We consider what it is that makes sport so powerful, and talk to leaders in the space including Radha Balani, Lex Chalat, Maria Bobenrieth and Katie Sadlier, who generously share their expertise.
Examples of current programmes for women and girls are also highlighted, along with the incredible impact they are making in places like Kenya, Iraq, Pakistan, Iran, Uganda, Sudan and Brazil.
The episode finishes with the conclusion to Game On and my thoughts on the way forward for women’s sport and how we can all play our part.
