About
Alice Milliat was a French sports administrator who organized women's sport nationally and internationally, founded the FSFI, and staged the Women's World Games to challenge exclusion from Olympic athletics.
Her public record shows unusually persistent social-care and resilience signals: institution-building, pressure on male-run sport bodies, and measurable openings for women athletes. The record is much thinner on explicit faith, worship, family aid, or private charity, so the profile is kept under review.
