Speaking on athlete rights and responsibilities, and on the importance of athlete representation and a collective voice, Pragnya reminded us that athletes must not only be protected but also heard. When athletes have a seat at the table, sport becomes stronger for everyone.

We explored what it truly means to put athletes first, to protect the spirit of sport, and to understand the human mind at the heart of safeguarding. A change is rising for India, and we believe, for the world.

BCORE is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with the Asia Safeguarding in Sport Network (ASSN) for the National SafeSport Programme at Rashtriya Raksha University.

ASSN brings a regional perspective that is often missing in global conversations on athlete welfare. Safeguarding frameworks built elsewhere do not always translate directly, they need to be understood and adapted to fit the cultural and institutional realities of the country.
