For the FIFA Women's World Cup, it means deciding which country will hold the tournament. They look at things like the country's facilities and ability to handle a big event. The chosen country will be in charge of planning and running the tournament.[5][6]

For the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, countries had to submit their bids. At first, nine countries were interested, but some dropped out. Australia and New Zealand decided to join forces and submitted a joint bid. Brazil, Colombia, and Japan also submitted bids but later withdrew.[7]

In the end, Australia and New Zealand won the bid. This is the first time the Women's World Cup will be held in multiple countries. It's also the first time in the Southern Hemisphere and the first senior FIFA tournament in Oceania. Australia is the second country from the AFC to host the Women's World Cup.[8]
