Equality & Equity In Sports
SAWASF’s mandate encompasses the interests of women in sport across all sport organisations in South Africa. It has now become important that women and girls involved in various roles in sport, project in one voice the urgency to bring equality and equity in sport in South Africa.

Become A SAWASF Advocate
SAWASF calls on all women and girls to join as the organisation as advocates, to be called upon as and when action is required for advocacy, through networking, lobbying, public information, and awareness-raising campaigns.
The nature of advocacy work is about social justice. Advocacy involves speaking and acting on behalf of women regarding their interest as persons who have been and continue to be discriminated against based on gender.
