implementation of strategies on gender equality, anti-violence and equal pay a condition of funding for

federations and clubs could also be an effective measure.

The resolution, approved unanimously by the commission, is a political recognition of discrimination

against women in sport. LBTI athletes, those with disabilities or of different religious backgrounds, are

often victims of multiple discrimination. The Olympic Committee has made the promotion of inclusion,

gender equality and diversity one of its priorities. This should be accompanied by strong actions, especially

in terms of accessibility and the fight against racism.

I am proud to announce that the Government of my country, Portugal, created a few months ago a working

group coordinated by a former Paralympic athlete, with the mission to present contributions and

recommendations for public policies on equality in sport. I hope that other countries will follow this

example.

I take this opportunity to pay public tribute to the Portuguese women's soccer team, which is getting closer

and closer to winning the World Cup.

We can recognize that sport can have an emancipating power and that much progress has been made in

recent years. We have seen this with the audiences for the Women's Euro soccer tournament.

But we need to continue the efforts to ensure that these relative successes are extended to other sports

and that the place of women in sport is truly valued, both professionally and non professionally.

Thank you very much.

No final do debate e antecedendo as votações, a Deputada Edite

Estrela (PS), proferiu as seguintes palavras:

I would like to thank the colleagues who have spoken, both

women and men.

With regard to what Ms Margreet De Boer asked, "Where are the men?", I would like to emphasise that

discrimination against women is not a women´s problem: it is a societal problem.

I also want to thank the colleague who spoke first, who gave a testimony that touched me, because she

spoke about her own experience.
