“Often programs are not designed to meet the needs of girls and women; they are underrepresented as participants and leaders.” Terri Temelini, Program Manager at Canadian Women and Sport, explores gender inequities within sport and recreation with an intersectional lens.
Terri breaks down the idea of belonging, confidence, and “perfection” in sports, and how this impacts girls and people identifying as non-binary.
The Balance is recorded and produced by BCAHL’s Communications Manager on the traditional, unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ilwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
Thank you so much for listening.
