"The sport and human rights movement has lost one of its kindest, most brilliant and wholehearted champions, Eli A. Wolff.
An incredible advocate, educator, husband, father and friend, Eli leaves an indelible mark on the world through his work at the University of Connecticut, The Power of Sport Lab, Disability in Sport International, and many others – including the successful campaign to establish today, April 6, as International Day of Sport for Development and Peace. We will miss him dearly, and work hard to honor his legacy and vision for a more inclusive and just world of sport."

Još jedno brutalno nasilje oca nad ćerkom. Dobio sam informaciju da je u pitanju porodica koja dolazi iz Kine. Podnećemo krivičnu prijavu i protiv ovog monstruma.
Women and girls everywhere should be free to decide what they want to wear. Stand up for the brave Iranian women and athletes fighting against the abusive, degrading and discriminatory compulsory veiling laws. #IranProtests2022#IranProtests#IranianWomen
🚨#ElnazRekabi defied Iran's rules by competing without a hijab & may now face retaliation in Iran.
The Sport & Rights Alliance calls on global sport to ensure Elnaz Rekabi's safety & to stand up against Iran's discriminatory & abusive compulsory veiling laws.

Yes to @TraceyLeeHolmes but @Olympics@iocmedia did NOTHING to help evacuate female athletes from AFG, please don’t give them credit where none is deserved
"I knew if I stayed, the Taliban would find me, beat me and burn me alive. I thought if I got killed trying to escape, it would be an easier death."
One year on from the fall of Kabul female athletes from Afghanistan have been forgotten
