LGBTQI+ Inclusion in Sports
Invisible to Visible Webinar Panel Sponsored by AIB
We were delighted to have AIB as sponsors once again for another webinar as part of the #PrideInSport campaign. ‘Invisible to Visible’ our first event of the campaign in 2021 saw panellists describe how sport is becoming an inclusive environment for the LGBTQI+ community and Allies. This panel highlighted the milestones since the 2015 Marriage Equality Referendum that changed the landscape of sport in Ireland. By sharing personal stories, our panellists gave us insights into how important the use of inclusive words can be for young athletes.
Our webinar panel discussion – Invisible to Visible sponsored by AIB – is part of the #PrideInSport campaign.
