ANTIGUANICE YACHTING INSIDER NEWSLETTER

World Sailing Trust announced on International Women’s Day that it was carrying out a strategic review as part of the Trust’s Access to Sailing work, focuses specifically on increasing gender diversity across our sport.

The first step in this process is a survey that will look at understanding the trends around gender diversity within sailing.  Its aim is to allow us to understand more about the realities of women and girls in sailing: what attracts them, what puts them off, why they drop out, the perceived and real barriers to participation that they might face and how this varies across countries, ages, classes and competition and different elements of the sport - racing vs recreational vs officials and, how we can increase women and girls’ participation.

Please complete and share the survey using this link - http://bit.ly/WomenInSailingSurvey
We would like to encourage the whole sailing and marine community to participate in the survey and tell their own story, and very much welcome your support in distributing this within your organization and the wider sailing community.
