“The future of the Olympic movement will be feminine”
The IOC announced it last year by bulging its chest: the Paris Games in 2024 will be marked by parity between men and women for the number of events and medals. A first. But where is gender equality in the Olympic movement? Do female leaders weigh the same as their male counterparts?

Nawal El Moutawakel, 58, Olympic champion at 400m hurdles at the 1984 Los Angeles Games, has been a member of the IOC since 1998. She was Vice-President between 2012 and 2016. She currently sits on the Executive Board.
