I'm honoured to have been appointed as the Vice Chair of @FISU's #GenderEquality Committee.

We have a big task ahead, but I'm looking forward to engaging with our members from across the world in order to tackle gender inequality in university sport.

Taking part in sport at @UniofNottingham shaped me into the person I am today.

It's unacceptable that students are increasingly unable to take part in @UoNSport, simply because they can't afford it.

That's why I'm supporting this year's #UoNGivingDay

Varpunen ja yli 2 500 muuta lajia on vaarassa kadota Suomesta. Luonto köyhtyy ennennäkemättömän nopeasti. Siksi vietämme tänään 26.9. #LahjoitaTänään-päivää.

Lahjoita nyt ja auta meitä löytämään ratkaisuja luontokadon pysäyttämiseksi.

Hallitusohjelman ajatus, että työperusteinen oleskelulupa peruttaisiin työsuhteen loppuessa, jos uutta sopimusta ei solmita kolmeen kuukauteen, ei toimi kansainvälisyyteen ja määräaikaisrahoitukseen nojaavien tutkimusprojektien maailmassa.

Did you notice anything different about the Opening Ceremony of @Chengdu2021?

For the first time ever at the @FISU World University Games, participating countries had the opportunity to be represented by joint flag bearers- one female and one male.

#GenderEquality #FISUGames

[Adam Pratchett @AWPratchett]

This small but symbolic change reflects FISU's increased commitment to achieving gender equality in university sport.

The change was implemented following a proposal from the FISU Gender Equality Committee back in 2020.

It was great to see so many countries get involved!
