A new Victorian Government resource is helping clubs become champions when it comes to creating respectful and safe sporting environments where gender equality is actively promoted, and gender stereotypes are challenged. Sport plays a valuable role in preventing gender-based violence. It is an important setting for championing equality and challenging gender inequality. While this Guide is primarily focused on community sport, many of the principles, resources and key learnings can apply to active recreation settings.
The Guide is a tool for organisations to work more effectively with a range of community sporting organisations including governing bodies, associations, clubs and volunteers to drive cultural change in community sport.
