2GAP Women and Sport world map project

Dear friends,

We are proud to announce that the 2GAP Women and Sport world map project has been selected to be presented throughout the Olympic Games in a symbolic location in the heart of Paris: the Cité Audacieuse. Created and supported by the Fondation des Femmes, the Cité Audacieuse opened its doors in 2020 right next to the Jardin du Luxembourg. The only one of its kind, it aims to raise the profile of women and their rights. It is a place for welcoming the general public and promoting equality. From June, an interactive screen will be installed so that visitors, athletes and journalists from all over the world can watch your videos and discover the strength of our networks. It's a fantastic opportunity to raise the profile of our international collaborative project!
The Cité Audacieuse has been named a totem pole by the Paris City Council for the 2024 Olympic Games, to highlight the major themes of equality in sport, both before and during the Games, in this unique venue. Exhibitions, conferences, meetings with sportswomen - a rich programme is being finalised! There's still time to get involved and contribute to the success of this unprecedented mobilisation across the world!

FCEM is the pioneer association uniting women business owners from the world over. Founded in France in 1945 at the end of World War II by Yvonne Foinant, and months before the United Nations, the Association quickly spread into other European countries and the 5 continents.
