The two-day event, held in partnership with the International Canoe Federation, will attract representatives from 35 countries and will feature a wide range of inspiring speakers, workshops, and fruitful discussions focused on creating a more equitable future for the sport.
Notable figures such as Thomas Konietsko, President of the International Canoe Federation, and some of the leading women in Paddlesports and the sporting industry in Ireland will be present. The symposium is an opportunity to commend the work done by the Irish Paddlesports community in empowering women in the sport.

According to CI, the symposium is an ideal platform to address the various challenges hindering women in the sport and create a better and more equitable future for all.
