Active Together

Welcome to our dynamic women’s action group, where we discuss important issues, plan to make impactful change and learn from one another.

This group is part of Rebecca Giglia’s PhD research. This project has been formed in a post-COVID lockdown context, where isolation, loneliness and physical inactivity has impacted many lives. In making meaningful connections and intentionally working towards goals of physical wellness and social justice as a group, we aim to create a space where multicultural women are welcomed and safe to participate together.

We are looking to connect with multicultural women (over 18) who are from the surrounding areas of Footscray, Victoria. The project focuses on women who have never engaged in formal sports before. We understand some of the existing barriers to participation, so this group is free of cost and has child minding services if required.
