Fourth United Nations (UN) Global Conference for Women, Beijing. The conference allowed for a reflection upon a decade of work since Nairobi (see 1985). The outcome of the conference was the Beijing Platform for Action – ‘an agenda for women’s empowerment … requiring a strong commitment on the part of governments, international organisations and institutions at all levels’ (UN, 1995). Statements on sport and/or physical activity are included in paragraphs located under the following strategic objectives: Education and Training of Women, Women and Health, Women in Power and Decision-Making, and The Girl Child thanks to the lobbying undertaken at the conference and previously (see 1995 Mar). Women and sport and physical activity was now in a globally agreed document produced by the UN.
