Biography: Dr. Madeleine Pape is a sociologist and Olympic athlete (2008, Athletics) supporting the International Olympic Committee to roll out the 2021 Framework on Fairness, Inclusion and Non-discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity and Sex Variations. Originally from Australia, Dr. Pape obtained her PhD in Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2019 and has published widely on the complex social, scientific, and political dimensions of regulating eligibility in elite women’s sport.
