Banter and Bullying in Sport and Physical Activity

Banter and Bullying in Sport and Physical Activity
January 24, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WEBINAR WILL HAVE A SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOCUS BUT EVERYONE IS WELCOME **
Webinar overview
Banter and microaggressions are keyways in which exclusionary bullying manifests in sport. These are often more subtle forms of exclusion which have enormous impact over time.
In this webinar we will explore the impacts of these behaviours on individuals and the culture of organisations. We will end the webinar by looking at ways in which we can tackle these behaviours as individuals and as an organisation.
This webinar is hosted by Molly Byrne, I&D expert from Inclusive Employers.
