The International Regulation of Women in Sports
Despite the progress that has been made in women's sport, disparities in female athletes' wages, visibility, training conditions, and opportunities for participation persist around the world. Further, women's sport continues to be an arena in which womanhood itself is defined, and women's bodies, policed, sensationalized, and at times violated. This webinar will explore the challenges that women in sports confront, and how international institutions do and should respond.
