Global Athlete is an international athlete-led movement whose aim is to inspire and lead positive change in world sport, and collectively address the current imbalance of power between athletes and sporting leaders. Our work helps athletes gain a more represented voice in world sport.

We stand steadfastly united in our calls for a truly independent, third-party investigation into the toxic culture and abuse practices within Canadian Gymnastics. Furthermore, all Canadian athletes must be afforded the exact remedy we are demanding. Athletes can no longer have their rights suppressed.
