More women on sports boards would reduce corruption, doping, says researcher
More women on sporting boards is likely to lead to less corruption, doping and match-fixing, sports researcher Catherine Ordway says – but not, she argues, because women are more ethical.
Ms Ordway speaks on Wednesday at a public seminar on women in sport, alongside Senator Katy Gallagher, track cyclist Rebecca Wiasak and Capital Football chief executive Heather Reid.
She supports the push to have more women on the top sporting boards – with the Australian Sports Commission running a name-and-shame style system where it names boards with fewer than 20 per cent women on their boards.
