“Gender equality and sport in North Macedonia” – the latest publication by UN Women’s Gender Equality Facility project

UN Women North Macedonia promoted the publication “Gender equality and sport in North Macedonia”. The main goal of this analysis is to provide a comprehensive overview of the situation with gender equality in sport in North Macedonia. It aims at providing a review of the key international and national documents and policies in order to bring understanding of the topic of sport and gender equality on a global and European level, connecting it to the North Macedonian context. It also examines the North Macedonian efforts towards gender equality in sport and presents valuable information on the current needs of women in sports in the country, presenting the experiences of women athletes, sport managers, and other relevant stakeholders in the area of sport.

On 5 December, UN Women and the Macedonian Olympic Committee co-organised an official promotion event and a panel discussion on challenges and opportunities for women in sports. Read more about the promotion event: https://bit.ly/3j3Pryd
