Sports Team
Masculinities, Allyship, and Violence

This strand focuses on the socio-political role of sport in shaping masculinities and promoting allyship. We will explore how sports culture can both reinforce and challenge traditional notions of masculinity. Sessions will address the role of athletes and sports organizations in advocating for gender justice and ending gender-based violence. Through collaborative discussions and presentations, we aim to develop strategies that leverage the influential platform of sports to promote healthier, more inclusive forms of masculinity.
