EIR pledge: Closing the Play Gap

 

 

Why We Need Active Women for a Healthier World

  • More than three-quarters of working women feel that sports participation helps enhance their self-image.

  • Girls active in sports during adolescence and young adulthood are 20 % less likely to get breast cancer later in life. 

  • Through sports, girls and women learn important life skills such as teamwork, leadership and confidence.   

  • When a woman is physically active, there is a 98 % chance that her children will be too.

  • Physical activity has been associated with improved psychological health by reducing stress level, anxiety and depression.

  • Physical activity can also provide a vehicle for social integration and equality for women in society.

  • According to the British Journal of Sports Medicine, doing at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week, would lead to an increase in Global GDP of 0.15% to 0.24% per year by 2050 which is worth up to US$314-446 billion per year.
