Upcoming SIGA Women’s Leadership Forum to address critical challenges in sport

Sport Integrity Global Alliance (SIGA), the world’s largest independent coalition for sport integrity, will host the inaugural #SIGAWomen Leadership Forum next month.

The forum will be held at Estádio do Dragão, the home stadium of FC Porto, in Porto, Portugal on Sept 11.

Building upon three hugely successful SIGA Summits on Female Leadership in Sport, hosted by SIGA founding member MasterCard in New York, this brand-new landmark annual event will further extend the #SIGAWomen Agenda to foster cultural change, enhance governance, and drive gender equity in the boardrooms of all sport organisations.

Since its pioneering session on “Good Governance in Sport: Piercing the Gender Glass Ceiling” (Paris, March 7, 2018), SIGA has been mobilising efforts to place gender equity, diversity, and inclusion at the top of the global agenda.

The #SIGAWomen Leadership Forum will bring together leading voices and key stakeholders from across the sport industry, who will address the most critical challenges, barriers, and opportunities in sport.

It will recognise leading figures that have helped shape the landscape and drive change. This event expands the #SIGAWomen Event Opportunities to ensure they are more accessible, inclusive, and diverse, to further drive the cultural change needed to advance the global sport industry.

It will feature keynote speeches, fireside chats, and the presentation of SIGA’s 2024 Survey on Female Representation on the Highest Executive Organs of International Sports Federations, the launch of the #SIGAWomen Manifesto, the SIGA 2024 Special Recognition Award Ceremony, as well as interactive panel sessions focusing on the most pressing topics.

This event is free of charge. However, places are limited and registration is required.
