Sports can contribute to the promotion of gender equality and empowerment in various ways:
Breaking stereotypes: By showcasing women and men participating in sports, stereotypes regarding gender roles and abilities can be challenged, promoting the idea that both genders are equally capable.
Providing opportunities: Through sports, women and girls can access opportunities for physical activity, skill development, leadership, and teamwork that may not be as readily available in other settings.
Promoting confidence: Participation in sports can boost self-esteem and confidence, helping individuals, especially women and girls, to feel empowered both on and off the field.
