Resistance, Sport, and Human Rights

Resistance, Sport, and Human Rights Filmed Thursday, October 23, 2025 at UConn Storrs Konover Auditorium, The Dodd Center for Human Rights | University of Connecticut | USA Part of the 2025 Sport & Human Rights Summit This panel examines the powerful role of sport as a site of resistance and a platform for advancing human rights. From athlete activism and protest movements to community-led initiatives that challenge systemic injustice, sport has long been a battleground where struggles for dignity, equity, and freedom are fought. By centering resistance, panelists will invite a critical reflection on sport not only as entertainment or competition, but as a powerful cultural space where human rights are negotiated, defended, and reimagined.
