    Challenges

    The power of sport as a transformative tool is of particular


    importance for women as women with disabilities often
    experience double discrimination. They are often addressed
    in the context of persons with disabilities and/or women and
    girls, without attention being paid to the specific multiple and
    intersecting forms of discrimination faced by women and girls
    with disabilities.
