International Women's Day: Break the Bias (West Coast Eagles)

The West Coast Eagles are celebrating the contribution of female staff and players in acknowledgement of today's International Women's Day.

But to me, equally important is the need to develop a plan towards these players becoming full time professional athletes – that is when the potential of this competition will be truly realised and we know we have made a big leap towards gender equity in our sport." "Since becoming a board director last year I have seen first-hand the effort by the West Coast Eagles to achieve greater gender equity, not only among the wider staff but the appointment of female executives and directors. While some industries are making strides in eradicating gender bias, it is not the case for all women and as a society we still have a lot of work to do to achieve genuine equity and to #breakthebias."

Reports from the UK and across the globe as well as data and research on IWD 2022.

Gulsum’s team commissioned a report which proved it was not physically possible to fall in the way she did and that she must have been thrown. It was an interesting conversation, because unlike the former Metropolitan policer chief Cressida Dick Blyth was very candid about the extent of the problems with sexism and misogyny in the police force. While the authorities initially accepted this story, the family didn’t, as Esin had only recently returned to her husband after walking out and saying she wanted a divorce. To our sisters in Russia who are protesting and speaking out against the invasion at great personal risk: We see your courage. If the GEO responds to my requests for further details I will report back.
