Premier League Listening Day

The Three Hijabis, Level Up, and End Violence Against Women and Girls Coallition (EVAW), wrote an open letter to the Premier League and the Football Association calling on both to take action against gender based violence in football.

On the back of the letter, we were invited alongside a number of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) specialists, to participate in a listening day at the Premier League HQ, to discuss how we see action on the issue of gender based violence in the game.

With the Women’s Euros kicking off next week it seems only fitting to see some commitments from footballs biggest influencers, the Premier League and the Football Association to tackle this issue.

We’re calling on football to ensure the lasting legacy of the Women’s Euro 2022 tournament is rooted in tackling misogyny and gender based violence in the game.

Football belongs to everyone.
