World Sailing Trust launches global Participation StudyThe
World Sailing Trust is today launching a global Participation Study to
assess the status of sailing in terms of equity, diversity and inclusion. The mission of the Participation Study is to build a sport that is able to attract, retain and enable talent across in all its forms, and has a robust equity, diversity and inclusion policy. This will support greater participation and improved performance and will strengthen the future of sailing on a global basis. The publication of the World Sailing Trust's Strategic Review into Women in Sailing in 2019 highlighted major issues of gender discrimination in the sport of sailing, confirming long-held anecdotal evidence that the sport was gender biased at every level. The results revealed a lack of diversity and inclusion, highlighting the need for action to ensure that sailing is ready for the seismic shift towards greater equity across all global cultures. The 2021 Participation Study will set out to establish the
status quo and identify how the sport reflects the world in 2021.
However, continued monitoring and benchmarking of participation levels,
and assessing and monitoring trends, is critical. As a result, the
Participation Study will be repeated every two years so as to identify
change and support those areas where there has been no significant
advancement. Attention Sailing Organizations & PR Agencies: |
