Through Nov 13, we’re amplifying the incredible work of the four winners of the 2020 Sport For Gender Equality Collective Impact Award supported by @ComicRelief and the BT Supporters Club. Today, hear from Dorcas Amakobe, Executive Director of @movingthegoalpost.

Take the Journey with Dorcas and then share widely to show how they are using sport to promote #SDG5: Achieve Gender Equality (link in bio).
