Game Changer

Game Changer is a project aimed at raising awareness and action through sport to tackle Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV). It is a partnership between Ruhama, the GAA, and White Ribbon Ireland, supported by the LGFA and Camogie Associations.

Game Changer is a strategic response to deliver on the goals of the Government’s Third National Strategy on Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV), with funding from the Government of Ireland, led by Cuan under the aegis of the Department of Justice.

The three-year project will deliver a number of initiatives and will work with Gaelic Games to:

  • Challenge the societal culture of sexual violence, including sharing of pornography, intimate image abuse and sexual exploitation.
  • Encourage behaviours that support values of gender equality and respect; and build confidence, opportunity and ‘sense of place’ for women and girls.
  • Encourage men and boys to engage in active allyship to eradicate gender-based violence in our society.
  • Support the challenging and disclosure of abusive behaviours.
  • Raise awareness of the harms and consequences of human trafficking for sexual exploitation.
