The symposium will look at how working conditions in women’s sport are changing, by tackling topics such as risks in major international competitions, the growth of professional leagues, and how to create fair, safe, and supportive environments for everyone involved.

Participants, a wide range of key players in women’s sport — from governments, employers’ and workers’ organisations, and professional women’s leagues to football associations, player unions, sport governing bodies, event organisers, and civil society groups, will explore current trends, share ideas, and reflect on strategies to promote decent work across all areas of women’s sport and event organisation.

Official programme and speakers will be shared shortly. In the meantime, you can check out the Agenda & Concept note .
