About S.W.E.E.P. International Conference, March 24 to 26, 2021

For many years, women and girls have been part of the vulnerable sector in society due to lack of access, funds, and opportunities. Their experience in the field of sports is no less different – even as studies have continually proven that women and girls who engage in sports have higher levels of confidence, perform better academically, and develop positive overall well-being and outlook in life.

The event is co-presented by the University of Tenessee’s Center for Sport, Peace, and Society, which has worked with international sports leaders and mentors to develop action plans towards sport inclusion for women and persons with disabilities, together with the immense support of ESPN’s The Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award.

SWEEP is also made possible through its partnership with the U.S. Department of State Sports Diplomacy, espnW, and the Global Sports Mentoring Program.
