More on: Gender equality

The topic of gender equality is central to the podcast episodes, which explore a range of issues related to the pursuit of equality between genders. The episodes delve into challenges and barriers to gender equality, as well as efforts and strategies to address them.

Several episodes highlight the ongoing struggle for women's rights and gender parity, including discussions around the impact of sexist attitudes among younger generations, the role of the 'trad wife' movement in undermining feminist progress, and the instrumentalization of women's rights rhetoric by far-right political parties.

Other episodes examine the broader societal implications of gender inequality, such as the personal and professional challenges of motherhood, the barriers faced by women in positions of leadership and power, and the disproportionate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women's employment.

The podcasts also highlight inspiring stories of women challenging gender norms and stereotypes, like the journey of a Pakistani squash player and the all-female ranger group protecting wildlife in South Africa.
