This research uses qualitative methods to analyse this program and current efforts to expand its scope and broaden the program’s positive societal impacts. The overarching research question is: What are the challenges and opportunities in growing a community-level sport-for-development program in a deeply resource-deprived context? While the data from this research are still being analysed, emerging results suggest some interesting outcomes. Innovative strategic thinking has resulted in the repurposing of scarce resources to create more equitable access to surfing equipment for women and girls, higher participation rates for women and girls, the attraction of high-profile international stakeholders such as the US State Department to support the cause, and the simultaneous initiation of community dialogue and increased awareness about GBV.Arrivals from 11:45 am for a 12:00 noon start. For those joining in-person, lunch will be served after the seminar from 1:00pm.International House can be found here on the campus map.If these in-person tickets have sold out, you can still join online by registering for the Zoom Webinar. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/loughborough/using-sport-to-combat-gender-based-violence-in-papua-new-guinea/100001983081329640 - **Event Categories**: workshops, sports, nonprofit, virtual, webinar - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fusing-sport-to-combat-gender-based-violence-in-papua-new-guinea-tickets-1983081329640 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Loughborough - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: International House, Loughborough University - **lat**: 52.7650253 - **long**: -1.2320904 - **full address**: International House, Loughborough University, Epinal Way, Loughborough, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Loughborough Institute of Advanced Studies (https://allevents.in/org/loughborough-institute-of-advanced-studies/21023316) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/09c9156b0235fb7834484fd075c78ea46b07b97c2781d1af5db72a3923a767d5-rimg-w960-h540-dcaabbc2-gmir.jpg?v=1771111744 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/b4068b3a3af7396f28de8cbc55b37a0e4847f1178f518af71628f82fa17f7527-rimg-w400-h400-dcabbbc2-gmir.jpg?v=1771111744 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 24 Jun, 2026 at 12:00 pm (+01:00) - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** International House, Loughborough University, Epinal Way, Loughborough, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Loughborough Institute of Advanced Studies - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops, sports, nonprofit, virtual, webinar - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Using sport to combat gender-based violence in Papua New Guinea ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Using sport to combat gender-based violence in Papua New Guinea", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/09c9156b0235fb7834484fd075c78ea46b07b97c2781d1af5db72a3923a767d5-rimg-w960-h540-dcaabbc2-gmir.jpg?v=1771111744", "startDate": "2026-06-24T12:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2026-06-24T13:00:00+01:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/loughborough/using-sport-to-combat-gender-based-violence-in-papua-new-guinea/100001983081329640", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "International House, Loughborough University", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Epinal Way", "postalCode": "LE11 3TU", "addressLocality": "Loughborough", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "52.7650253", "longitude": "-1.2320904" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "IAS Residential Fellow Professor Danny O’Brien delivers a seminar on their research, followed by a lunch.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-02-14", "availabilityEnds": "2026-06-24T13:00:00+01:00", "validFrom": "2026-02-14", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/loughborough/using-sport-to-combat-gender-based-violence-in-papua-new-guinea/100001983081329640" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-02-14", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-02-14", "url": "https://allevents.in/loughborough/using-sport-to-combat-gender-based-violence-in-papua-new-guinea/100001983081329640", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Loughborough Institute of Advanced Studies", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/loughborough-institute-of-advanced-studies/21023316" } ] } ] ```
