For example, the situations and challenges are not the same in timed and scored disciplines or early-age sports as they are in combat or precision sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this in mind, the topics were expanded to include aspects such as <strong>mental health<\/strong>, <strong>prevention<\/strong>, <strong>social responsibility<\/strong>, <strong>commitment<\/strong>, and <strong>leadership<\/strong>, with the aim of addressing, through examples, cases in which the sports community was harmed by inefficient actions, attitudes, and processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Athletes increase their chances of staying in the sport through support that builds a <strong>network<\/strong> allowing them to grow and feel safe in various situations, ranging from a victory to the loss of a loved one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sports career requires attention and vigilance at different stages of its journey, as safe spaces mark the turning points in a life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Functioning&nbsp; as an ecosystem, sports require <strong>communication<\/strong>, <strong>values<\/strong>, <strong>principles<\/strong>, and <strong>protocols<\/strong> that address the various situations within a specific context. Metrics, data, and experiences serve as the pillars upon which bridges are built to mediate and safeguard athletes\u2019 continued participation in sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Secretary General and Coordinator of the Gender Equality Commission of the Colombian Olympic Committee, <strong>Ana Edurne Camacho Corredor<\/strong>, presided over the closing of the academic session and emphasized: \u201cWith these two days of the Congress, we are embarking on a serious endeavor that we wish to carry out and establish in the country. Recognize within yourselves that willingness to attend and be part of this entire effort, because I know you will replicate it in your work and with the people around you. Thank you so much, and we\u2019ll meet again soon, because this experience is for both your professional and personal lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After two days of activities, the <strong>International Congress on Safe Sport and Gender Equality: Prevention for Sport with Integrity<\/strong> concluded its program, committed to strengthening sports processes in our country and promoting a more equitable and safe environment for all stakeholders.The <strong>Colombian Olympic Committee<\/strong> organized this event with the support of <strong>Panam Sports<\/strong>, the <strong>International Olympic Committee<\/strong>, and <strong>Compensar<\/strong>, as well as its permanent partners <strong>Totto<\/strong>, <strong>SmartFit<\/strong>, <strong>Positiva Compa\u00f1\u00eda de Seguros<\/strong>, <strong>RCN Radio<\/strong>, and <strong>Canal RCN<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Featuring presentations by highly regarded speakers such as Gloria Viseras (Spain), Marialoreto [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":33403,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"news_sports":[213],"class_list":["post-33408","news-sport","type-news-sport","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_sports-women-in-sport"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
