The English School was delighted to host the Women & Sport Initiative by Unicars, held under the auspices of Mrs Josie Christodoulou, Commissioner for Gender Equality of the Republic of Cyprus.
The initiative, part of Unicars’ Corporate Social Responsibility programme, aims to promote gender equality in sport, celebrate the achievements of female athletes and highlight inspiring role models who encourage young people to pursue their ambitions without limitations.
The event featured an engaging panel discussion, bringing together inspiring women from the worlds of sport, leadership and public service:
The panelists shared their personal experiences, challenges and achievements, highlighting the importance of perseverance, self-confidence, determination and equal opportunities. Their insights encouraged students to challenge stereotypes, overcome obstacles and pursue their ambitions with confidence.
The discussion was moderated by our Year 7 students, Maria-Christina Economides and Alexandra Georgiou, who facilitated an engaging exchange of experiences and ideas with students from across the School.
The event provided a valuable opportunity for students to hear directly from accomplished women, reflect on the importance of representation and equality in sport, and recognise the positive influence of female role models.
We extend our sincere thanks to Unicars, all four panellists and everyone involved in organising this meaningful event.
