  • 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.

In a year which saw several positive developments with regard to protection of intersex human rights, it was extremely encouraging for us to receive the support of participants who showed interest to engage on this critical issue. The conference was attended by significant number of intersex persons from India and abroad. We were delighted to host parents of intersex infants and children in the conference. The attendees were also joined by few intersex persons who are not open about their identity. Srishti Madurai received over 200 registration applications through the Google form. Owing to privacy and safety concerns of few intersex infants/parents, participants and speakers, we were compelled to restrict the number of participants to 60. Consequently, and regrettably, some applicants who wished to attend from different parts of the country could not participate. From our end, we made the best possible effort to accommodate as many participants as possible. We hope that this conference marks a new chapter in the journey of intersex human rights in India. At Srishti Madurai, we will continue our efforts with renewed energy to create a space for intersex people, despite the many barriers before us.

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.
