​Just Wonderin’ About “Safe" Sport

Hybrid event at University of Alberta
Hosted by the Just Movements CreateSpace

January 11, 2023    9:30 am to 11am. 
Optional hang out and chat “open house” until Noon.

This event will be a low-structure conversation between four people who have been thinking and wondering a lot about safe sport. All four have big questions and concerns about Canada's current "safe Sport" approach. The event will start with a 5-10 minute context of the problem of unsafe sport and Canada's approach to it. We will then engage in a conversation about each of our major questions, wonderings and concerns about "safe sport as it is currently being approached. 

A bit about the 4 wonderers: 

Stephanie Dixon (she/her ; U of Toronto; in person) is researching the experiences of those who have lodged complaints within safe sport frameworks; William Bridel (he/him; U of Calgary; virtual) has done significant research and policy work around 2SLGBTQ+-related harms and (in)equity in sport; Nathan Fawaz (they/them; U of Alberta; virtual) is researching how to create transformational-justice approaches to pedagogy that might address inequity and systemic harms within the Sport, Physical Activity, Recreation and Kinesiology fields; Danielle Peers (they/them; U of Alberta; in person) is deeply interested in abolitionist critiques of policing and punishing our way to safety in sport and beyond.
