Students will learn about the impact of menstruation, pregnancy, menopause and other hormonal changes on experiences in health, exercise, and sport settings. This unit takes an intersectional approach to educate students about the impact of gender and other identities in health, exercise, and sport settings. This unit will provide a dedicated space to address these contemporary issues and help students develop advocacy skills for use in health, exercise, and sport settings. This unit is being developed in response to Exercise and Sport Science advisory board recommendations of further focus on sex in health, exercise, and sport and builds on the social determinants of health that students were introduced to in earlier years.
