#Morethanfootball Participants Mark Gender Equality Action Day

Clubs, leagues and FAs taking part in the #Morethanfootball Action Weeks today observed the Gender Equality Action Day. EFDN members and participating organisations took the opportunity to highlight their initiatives and programmes that tackle the issue of gender equality. Below, we highlight these engagements.

The high number of female coaches in our programs makes female leadership visible and enables young people to see beyond gender barriers and have higher aspirations.#MoreThanFootball @EFDN_tweets pic.twitter.com/n7SbBdcieD

We are focussed on drawing attention to issues of gender inequality.

A few months ago Schools' Manager Paul Hughes did several workshops within schools for International Womens' Day, with the aim of helping children understand the gender divide in sport. ✊#Morethanfootball pic.twitter.com/xZEMnJQd9s
