SHE Summit: Final Evaluation Report

Abstract

Girls from culturally diverse backgrounds have been identified as an important target population for the promotion of health, sport and physical activity engagement. The Sport Health Education (SHE) Summit, delivered by the Lebanese Muslim Association, aimed to engage girls from culturally and linguistically diverse and marginalised groups to inspire, empower and enhance health, physical activity and educational aspirations. The purpose of this evaluation was to evaluate the impact of the GoActive SHE Summit on perceptions of body image and social media, confidence, sport participation, educational and career aspirations. This evaluation report presents the findings of a program evaluation questionnaire and a series of focus groups with female secondary school students who attended the SHE Summit. These findings will be used to inform future initiatives designed to empower and enhance health and educational outcomes in girls from culturally diverse backgrounds
