CHAMPIONS OF CHANGE SPORT
The Sport Group was established in May 2015 and today includes 16 members who lead organisations that have reach and influence across Australian society. The Group includes representatives from major national sporting organisations and the leaders of some of Australia’s largest and most successful sporting clubs.
Members work within and across their sports to advance gender equality, leveraging the unparalleled influence and power sport has in this country to shift cultures and mindsets. The Group’s priorities include: advancing more women into leadership positions; developing more inclusive sporting cultures; and pay equity for athletes.
