Unit 10: Sport as a Human Right

In chapter 11, Schultz describes how people and organizations have considered sport as a human right. Reflect on how this way of thinking affects how we as a society should argue for advancements in opportunities for girls and women in sport. Pretend you are writing a 300 – 500 word opinion piece for a local newspaper about why your city should expand opportunities for girls and women in sport because it is a human right. Use and cite direct examples from the textbook to make your argument more persuasive.
