  • Games and Sports : a Gateway of Women's Empowerment in India
    Games And Sports : A Gateway Of Women’s Empowerment In India Dr. Krishnendu Pradhan ABSTRACT “Sport has huge potential to empower women and girls” - Remarks by Lakshmi Puri; UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN Women Deputy Executive Director. The purpose of this paper attempts to shed light the status of women’s empowerment in India through games and sports and highlights the issues and challenges of women empowerment in the field of physical education and sports. Sport is an integral part of the culture of almost every nation. However, its use to promote gender equity and empower girls and women is often overlooked because sport is not universally perceived as a suitable or desirable pursuit for girls and women. Today the empowerment of women in games and sports has become one of the most important concerns of 21st century. But practically women empowerment in games and sports is still an illusion of reality. It is observe in our day to day life how women become victimized by various social evils. Women empowerment is the vital instrument to expand women’s ability to have resources and to make strategic life choices. Empowerment of women in games and sports is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. Today sports and physical activity as a strategy for the empowerment of girls and women has been gaining recognition worldwide. Women could be empowered through education, sports and physical activities and by giving them equal opportunities in different walks of life. Research on sport, gender, and development indicates that sport can benefit girls and women by: Enhancing health and well-being, fostering self-esteem and empowerment, facilitating social inclusion and integration, challenging gender norms and providing opportunities for leadership and achievement.

  • Tribunal Arbitral Du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport
    Tribunal Arbitral du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport Arbitration CAS 2014/A/3759 Dutee Chand v. Athletics Federation of India (AFI) & International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), award of 24 July 2015 Panel: Judge Annabelle Bennett (Australia), President; Prof. Richard McLaren (Canada); Mr Hans Nater (Switzerland) Athletics Eligibility of female athletes with hyperandrogenism to compete in women’s competitions CAS jurisdiction Burden and Standard of proof Discrimination of the Hyperandrogenism Regulations on a prima facie basis Scientific basis for the Hyperandrogenism Regulations Invalidity of the Hyperandrogenism Regulations as a proportionate means of attaining a legitimate sportive objective Nature of the Hyperandrogenism Regulations 1. According to the IAAF Hyperandrogenism Regulations, a right of appeal before the CAS is only given in respect of an IAAF decision. However, the IAAF can agree to the determination of the validity of the Hyperandrogenism Regulations by the CAS despite the fact that the athlete’s right of appeal should have been exercised before a national level body. Furthermore, according to Article 178(2) of the Swiss Federal Code on International Private Law, if an objective appraisal of all the facts establishes a mutual intention to subscribe to arbitration by the CAS - such as an implicit acceptance of the athlete’s offer to submit the dispute to the ad hoc jurisdiction of the CAS - then the CAS has jurisdiction to determine the case for the purposes of Swiss law. 2. The burden of proving that the Hyperandrogenism Regulations are invalid is on the athlete. If the athlete establishes that the Hyperandrogenism Regulations are prima facie discriminatory by reference to a higher ranking rule or otherwise, on the balance of probabilities, the burden then shifts to the IAAF to establish that they are justifiable as reasonable and proportionate to justify the discrimination.

  • Dutee Bags Gold at World Univ Games, 1St Indian to Win 100M at a Global Meet
    Dutee bags gold at world univ games, 1st Indian to win 100m at a global meet [email protected] Sprinter Dutee Chand became the first Indian ever to win gold in the 100m race at a global meet when she finished first in the event at the World Universiade in Napoli on Wednesday. Soon after her historic win, Dutee Chand tweeted: “Pull me down, I will come back stronger!” The tweet was Dutee’s way of answering her critics, who have time and again raised doubts over her gender and questioned her personal choices. “That message was for my family, my elder sister Saraswati and mother Akhuji, who are against my same-sex relationship,” Dutee told TOI from Napoli. “The gold medal is my reply to them and to all my critics that I can manage both my personal life with my chosen partner and the athletics career. I don’t need their advice. I am mature enough to make my own decisions. This medal should silence all who have been talking rubbish about me, my existence and my choice of soulmate,” she said. In Napoli, the 23-year-old from Odisha’s Chaka Gopalpur village clocked 11.32 seconds to win the gold, leading the race from start to finish. She was the first to get off the blocks in the eight-woman final and thwarted a late challenge from Switzerland’s Del Ponte (11.33s) to finish on top. Lisa KwaYie of Germany took the bronze in 11.39s. The Universiade is an international multi-sport event organised for university athletes held every two years.

    HUMAN “They’re Chasing Us Away RIGHTS from Sport” WATCH Human Rights Violations in Sex Testing of Elite Women Athletes 19301930ss 19401940s-1950s-1950s s Unsubstantiated stories of men Systematic sex testing, of a sort, exists as early as masquerading as women in international the 1940s via identity cards and “certificates of sporting events first appear.i femininity,” with the IAAF and IOC requiring all female athletes who wish to register for an event to provide a physician letter attesting to their sex for eligibility purposes.ii Meeting of the Executive Committee of the International Olympic Committee in 1951 in Vienna, chaired by IOC President Edström. © 1951 ullstein bild via Getty Images BACKGROUND You have to sacrifice so much, especially us ladies. —C.M., athlete, November 12, 2019 The regulation of women’s participation in sport via “sex testing” dates back decades. A key architect of such regulations—a former official with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and World Athletics—later went on to characterize previous testing regimes as a “systematic violation for which the world of sport must take respon- sibility,” and “a decades-long example of sexual harassment of sexual abuse within sport [and] a flagrant abuse.”13 The earliest attempts at “sex testing” that sports authorities instituted in the 1940s for the purposes of eligibility were informal and ad hoc, but by the 1960s, sports governing bodies such as the IAAF and the IOC began system- atic mandatory testing of all women athletes based on rumors that some women “were more male than female,” resulting in “unfair competition for ‘real’ women.”14 There have never been analogous regulations for men.
