The Transnational Working Group for the Study of Gender and Sport invites scholars from the field of gender research in sport to Basel, Switzerland, on the 26 – 28 November 2015.

The meeting will take place at the School for Teacher Education in north-western Switzerland at the University of Basel. Attendees are also invited to submit papers on the points of discussion to be addressed at this year's event.

Looking back on a long tradition of theoretical and empirical studies of sexism and gender discrimination, gender equity and gender construction in sport; we invite researchers from different countries and scientific communities to discuss past, present and future perspectives, challenges and opportunities in the field of gender research in sport and sport studies.

We would like to propose the following topics for discussion:

  • Theoretical approaches to gender in the field of sport studies
  • Methodological approaches to intersectionality in the research of gender and sport
  • Gender policies in sport
  • New topics and perspectives
