#067 International Women’s Day 2020 #EachforEqual

An equal world is an enabled world. 

Charelle and Verity have recorded a special episode to mark #IWD2020 and discuss this year’s theme which is all around how will you help forge a gender equal world?

Celebrate women's achievement. Raise awareness against bias. Take action for equality.

We cover the key topics including championing women forging tech innovation, applauding equality for women athletes, forging inclusive workplaces, support women to earn on her own terms and in her own way, empower women through health education and increased visibility for women creatives.

Do you think the tech industry is feeling more equal now then 10 years ago? Should female athletes get paid the same as male athletes? Is it important to nurture within the workplace? Did you learn about sex from teen magazines?

We discuss the male heavy investors, the pay - and respect - gap in sport, women at every stage of the ladder, where all the female graduates go, imposter syndrome, the poor dialogue around the female anatomy and sex and how festivals are failing to balance the genders in their line-ups.

Come join us for this empowering discussion and take a step today towards #each for equal.
