Esta es la primera iniciativa en la que el IWG ofrece una ayuda econ\u00f3mica para promover la igualdad de g\u00e9nero en sus 29 a\u00f1os de historia.<\/p>\n<p>El fondo AWF, un legado de la Fundaci\u00f3n Anita White, se ha creado en honor a la Dra. Anita White OBE y a Cath Sweet, dos figuras destacadas del movimiento femenino y del deporte que colaboraron en varios proyectos internacionales de desarrollo deportivo.<\/p>\n<p>El AWF est\u00e1 formado por dos series de subvenciones que reflejan los respectivos campos de especializaci\u00f3n de Anita y Cath. Cada una de estas subvenciones concede importes de hasta 2000 libras por beneficiario en un ciclo de financiaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>La <strong>beca catalizadora Anita White<\/strong> est\u00e1 dirigida a aquellas mujeres que han completado con \u00e9xito programas de liderazgo con el objetivo de impulsar el movimiento femenino y el deporte en sus pa\u00edses, regiones u organizaciones. Este fondo honra el liderazgo de la Dra. Anita White en el movimiento internacional de la mujer y el deporte, as\u00ed como su papel en la creaci\u00f3n del Grupo Internacional de Trabajo (IWG).<\/li>\n<li><strong>El\u00a0premio Cath Sweet<\/strong>\u00a0apoya a las mujeres que deseen llevar a cabo programas que\u00a0fomenten la inclusi\u00f3n social a trav\u00e9s del deporte y dar\u00e1 prioridad a las actividades centradas en la discapacidad. Este fondo cuenta con el apoyo de la agencia gubernamental UK Sport en memoria de Cath y de su trabajo por utilizar el deporte para lograr un impacto social positivo en todo el mundo.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lisa O\u2019Keefe, secretaria general del IWG, explic\u00f3 \u201cMe hace muy feliz que hayamos podido crear este fondo, que contribuir\u00e1 a apoyar a las mujeres que trabajan en el mundo del deporte.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cQuiero dar gracias de nuevo a la Fundaci\u00f3n Anita White, a la familia de Cath Sweet y a la agencia UK Sport por esta oportunidad, as\u00ed como a la profesora Elizabeth Pike de la Universidad de Hertfordshire (Inglaterra) por gestionar las subvenciones. El IWG tiene una visi\u00f3n clara de que el deporte y la actividad f\u00edsica contribuyen a un mundo en el que las mujeres y las ni\u00f1as progresen sin limitaciones. Por eso, esta financiaci\u00f3n nos acerca un paso m\u00e1s a conseguirlo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>La Dra. Anita White OBE afirm\u00f3 \u201cMe motiva mucho el trabajo que est\u00e1n haciendo las mujeres l\u00edderes en el deporte en todo el mundo. Sabemos, por el \u00e9xito de las subvenciones de la Fundaci\u00f3n Anita White que se han concedido en los \u00faltimos siete a\u00f1os, lo importante que es apoyar las iniciativas que pueden tener un impacto significativo a partir de una inversi\u00f3n relativamente peque\u00f1a.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mike Sweet explic\u00f3 \u201cLa familia de Cath y yo estamos muy contentos de que el premio Cath Sweet ya est\u00e9 abierto a candidaturas y apoyamos plenamente esta iniciativa.\u202fCath reconoci\u00f3 la importancia del deporte y c\u00f3mo generaba efectos positivos para todos, concretamente para la igualdad y el empoderamiento de todas las mujeres y ni\u00f1as.\u202fElla estuvo muy implicada en la inclusi\u00f3n y la creaci\u00f3n de v\u00edas de liderazgo para los grupos marginados.
