The talks will cover watershed moments in the development of women's football, its impact and growth on these shores and overseas, and looking ahead to the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. The comprehensive two-day conference will examine a range of issues that the women's game has faced, tackling issues around sexuality, gender roles, religion and culture.
