Kristen Worley is a Canadian high performance track cyclist who has been speaking publicly on issues of gender discrimination and treatment of gender variant athletes.

She is also co-founder of Coalition of Athletes for Inclusion in Sport formed in 2009 to address the IOC Gender Policy. Worley's activism recently ensured world sporting bodies lift the ban on South African runner Caster Semenya, who had to sit out for 11 months after the world champion's gold medal was revoked as she failed 'gender tests'.
