Event description

HeForShe Turkey invites you to the launch of the “Guidelines for gender-responsive sports organizations”.

The guidelines have been developed under the UN Women’s HeForShe movement in Turkey—a trail-blazing effort to translate the UN Women’s Sport for Generation Equality principles into a step-by-step guide on how to develop strategies and translate them into concrete and measurable actions.

The guidelines are structured to help sports organizations in terms of empowerment of women and girls and advancement of gender equality through concrete and quantifiable actions and indicators. They offer a simple, effective roadmap to mobilize action on gender equality in day-to-day and overall operations.

The sports community has an important role to play to tear down gender barriers and discrimination and to empower women and girls, both in the world of sport and beyond.

The session will have simultaneous interpretation in Turkish and English, as well as sign language.
