Le comité de la diversité et de l’inclusion a reçu plusieurs candidatures – toutes des projets visant à promouvoir le statut des fxmmes dans le milieu de l’escalade sportive. Ce ne fut pas une décision facile de sélectionner seulement 3 projets, et nous croyons que les projets sélectionnés apporteront de la valeur à toute la communauté canadienne!
- Ontario Climbing Federation – Les Filles et Fxmmes dans l’escalade: une série éducative en trois parties pour les athlètes et les entraîneurs

OCF – Girls and Womxn in Climbing: A three-part educational series for athletes and coaches
This educational series will be offered through webinar to the Canadian climbing community, and will support coaches in developing their understanding of the female athlete. The proposed topics for the series are:
- Hormone Cycles: Estrogen, periods, and how a female’s hormonal cycle can influence their performance, training, and injury risk.
- Nutrition and Eating Disorders: How female nutrition needs differ from those of males, and how to spot and prevent eating disorders and Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (Red-S).
- Psychology of Competition Between Women: overview of research into female rivalry and social comparisons in sport specifically relating to climbing.
Ground Up Climbing – Spring Break Climbing Workshop
The CEC grant will support an addition to our Youth Recreational Programs which will increase preteen and adolescent girls’ and young womxns´ participation in indoor rock climbing, and provide leadership opportunities for both womxn employed by Ground Up and young community members. This pilot week-long workshop for up to 8 girls and young womxn aged 13-14 will take place during the March Spring Break. The workshop will foster an inclusive and positive learning environment where girls are supported to be themselves and explore their mental and physical strengths.
A detailed curriculum will be developed and shared with the Canadian community, along with a report of this experience.
The Hive Climbing and Fitness – BelayALL Academy
The BelayALL Academy will host, in partnership with The Hive Climbing Gyms, three clinics in order to create space for women and gender nonconforming (gnf) individuals to learn skills traditionally associated with cisgender men.
- a strength session in order to close the gap in how non-male folks feel accessing the training area of the gym.
- a mobility session to help involve womxn and gnf folks in one of the forefront areas of study in the sport of climbing.
- a route setting clinic to create a pipeline to get more diverse bodies setting routes and considering this area of the sport as a viable career.
A detailed curriculum will be developed and shared with the Canadian community, along with a report of this experience.
