WomenSport International, represented by Diane Huffman and Kari Fasting attended the Global Observatory on Gender and Sport co-hosted meeting with UNESCO in Paris France from November 27-29th, 2023. The two-day event focused on ‘Monitoring Progress on Gender Equality, Girls, Women, Physical Education, Physical Activity and Sport. The overall purpose was to bring together global organisations to discuss and ensure their commitment on the proposed role of the GO particularly its data collation and reporting on activities through the sharing of policies, frameworks and platforms on gender equality and the empowerment of women in and through sport. Also attending from the WSI Board was Game Mothibi, representing TAFISA but giving WSI strong visibility and ensuring our commitment to the GO is realized.
