SUMMARY OF THE MAIN RESULTS 1.1 Introduction “ALL IN: Towards gender balance in sport1” is a European Union (EU) and Council of Europe (COE) joint project (1 March 2018 - 31 October 2019). Its aim is to provide support to public authorities and sport organisations when designing and implementing policies and programmes to address gender inequalities in sport and when adopting a gender mainstreaming strategy. A part of this project is to collect data on gender equality in sport on leadership, coaching, participation, media /communication and gender-based violence, so that progress can be monitored, and comparisons made between countries and between sports, which will aid in the design of evidence-based policies. The results in this report present the main ndings of the data collected2. 1.2 Methodology Eighteen countries were involved in the project: Albania, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Georgia, Israel, Lithuania, Montenegro, Netherlands, Portugal, Serbia and Spain. Survey questions were submitted to the National Olympic Committees (NOCs), the ministries/government departments responsible for sport and the national sport federations3 aliated to the 35 international federations recognised by the International Olympic Committee, and for which the discipline was included in the programme of the last Olympic Games (2016/2018).4 In some countries, there are not 35 federations (sometimes less, sometimes more). Each country appointed a national co-ordinator who was responsible for carrying out the survey. The online questionnaire was sent through the software program Eval&Go. The data gathering took place from March to May of 2019.5 Table 1 gives an overview of the total number of respondents in each country.6 The project had a very high response rate, 85%, and it can, therefore, be concluded that the study is representative for the participating countries. For some: Albania; Croatia; France; Georgia; and Lithuania, the response rate was 100%. The participants answered most of the questions, although several federations did not answer the questions about their membership. Still, the response rate, compared to other academic studies, is very high. This, therefore, makes the study highly representative and valid. 1. www.coe.int/sport/ALLIN 2. To have an overview of all the data collected, have a look at the dynamic databases created within the framework of the ALL IN project (www.coe.int/sport/ALLIN - section on the data collection campaign) 3. Except for Belgium where only one Olympic sport federation is national. The rest are community-based. 4. International Boxing Association (AIBA), International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), International Equestrian Federation (FEI), International Fencing Association (FIE), International Weightlifting Federation (IWF), International Basketball Federation (FIBA), International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation (IBSF), International Canoe Federation (ICF), International Association Football Federation (FIFA), International Golf Federation (IGF), International Gymnastics Federation (FIG), International Handball Federation (IHF), International Hockey Federation (FIH), International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), International Judo Federation (IJF), International Luge Federation (FIL), International Swimming Federation (FINA), International Ski Federation (FIS), World Rowing (FISA), International Tennis Federation (ITF), International Table Tennis (ITTF), International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF), International Volleyball Federation (FIVB), Badminton World Federation (BWF), World Curling Federation (WCF), World Taekwondo (WT), World Sailing (WS), Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), International Biathlon Union (IBU), International Skating Union (ISU), International Modern Pentathlon Union (UIPM), International Triathlon Union (ITU), United World Wrestling (UWW), World Archery Federation (WA), World Rugby (WR). 5. Data was collated on 31 December 2018, except the area of participation in sport, which was collated on 31 December 2017. 6. Due to the low response rate, the data from Montenegro and Bulgaria are not included in this report. Page 7 Table 1.

Thereafter, some of the main ndings related to the analysis of the dierences between the countries and the sport federations are commented on. Page 8 7 ALL IN! TOWARDS GENDER BALANCE IN EUROPEAN SPORT - Analytical report of the data collection campaign 1.3.1 KEY DATA ON GENDER EQUALITY IN SPORT Table 2. Percentage of women in decision-making positions in the national governing bodies of sport (Olympic sport federations and national Olympic committees) Female Female board Female presidents vice-presidents members % n % n % n Olympic sport federations 7 35 18 171 22 1118 National Olympic Committees 19 3 29 15 22 64 Table 2 shows that women are under-represented in decision-making positions both in the Olympic sport federations and the NOCs. The percentage of female presidents is particularly low. It is somewhat higher among the NOCs (19%) than among the Olympic sport federations (7%). The percentage of female vice-presidents is higher, 29% in the Olympic Committees, compared with 18% in the Olympic sport federations. For both organisations, 22% of the board members are women. The same proportion of females is found among the employed elite level coaches (22%) as illustrated in Table 3. Table 3. Percentage of female elite level coaches employed by federations % n Female elite level coaches (employed by federations) 22 801 Another major nding is that 31 % of all members of a sport club are women and that the dierence between girls (under 18 years of age) and adult women (18 years and above) (Table 4) is very small.

    2020 INTERNATIONAL SPORTS FEDERATIONS SOCIAL MEDIA RANKING #IFRANKING SOCIAL MEDIA FROM SIDE STAGE TO MAIN STAGE Burson Cohn & Wolfe Sports (BCW Sports) is pleased to publish the 2020 International Sports Federations Social Media Ranking. Published for the fourth year in a row, this ranking aims to capture the social media footprint of international sports federations and provide insightful takeaways of how different content leads to different outcomes. 2020 has been a year unlike any other for sports federations. Despite setback after setback, with cancellations and postponements of sporting events around the world, the year has been revolutionary for the whole sports industry. Since matches and tournaments were not taking place, sports fans had to look for other channels of engagement. They found what they were looking for on social media. This year’s ranking, as per previous years, includes international sports federations (IFs) from both the Winter and Summer Olympic programmes. In addition, for the first time, non-Olympic IFs have also been included. This should serve to increase the comparative and informative value of the IF Ranking. On behalf of BCW Sports, I truly hope that you enjoy our findings. Share your thoughts by engaging with us at @bcwsport and use our hashtag #IFranking.
