This statement welcomes the report on the right to participate in sports by Alexandra Xanthaki, the United Nations Special Rapporteur in the field of Cultural Rights. From the elite athlete level to the community level, where the majority of participation in sports lies, we affirm that all people, including trans, gender diverse, and intersex persons, must be able to realize their human right to participate in sports as an essential element of cultural life.
Inclusion in Sports Statement
This statement calls for inclusive approaches to ensure that everyone, regardless of gender identity or sex characteristics, can participate safely and equitably in sports. By signing, you join a global movement advocating for gender equality, bodily autonomy, and the dismantling of discrimination in sports.
