We are a collective of Australian women’s sports advocates, content creators and fans who for years—decades even—have been left wanting more from mainstream coverage of women in sport. Realising we could achieve more together than separately, we combined our skills, experience and knowledge to create Siren: A Women in Sport Collective.

29. Inclusive sport with ESWP participant Julie Dickson

Siren co-founder Kirby Fenwick and Dr Kasey Symons catch up with Siren Sport x ABC Sport Emerging Sports Writer Program Participant Julie Dickson to discuss her important story on the BMI or Body Mass Index and the complications of using it as a one-size-fits-all approach. We discuss where the idea for the story came from, the importance of inclusivity in sport as well as Julie's experience in the ESWP.
