Equality, Diversity & Inclusion for Sport and Physical Activity Workshop
About this event
Launch Date (first workshop): 5th February 2020, 18:00 - 20:00
Sport has the power to unite people, particularly when cheering for your national team. However, as we have seen recently in football, it can also be the arena where individuals allow feelings of hate and prejudice to come out. Why is sport having these problems? Is it unique to sport or part of being human? And what can we do about it as leaders in our clubs and associations, or on the pitch as referees, coaches or players? This two hour course takes a look at issues of diversity, inclusion, fairness, equality, respect and acceptance within sport.
Learning Outcomes
• Why DIFERA matters in sport
• Why inclusion is so difficult for humans
• How to challenge prejudice
• How to think about reasonable adjustments
• What respect looks like
• How good mental health helps us to accept
Developed in partnership between Liberate (Jersey) and Jersey Sport, delivered by Liberate (Jersey).
