Rourou Conversations

Gender equality and equity are still massive issues globally and locally. While people will say that we’ve come a long way, we’ve not come far enough. Previous waves of feminism have improved things for some, but excluded others. We ask those leading change what the role of feminism might be in that future or if there’s a different, better movement for us to unite under.

Emma is a mother of 3 teenagers, founder of Works for Everyone and NZ’s first Part Time Power List and podcast host. She shares her personal story of how the motherhood penalty took her by surprise and smashed her first career and how she evolved her second career to smash it back. We talk about the power of beliefs and the language we use in leading change and achieving equity for parents, in our homes and in our workplaces. For Emma, the future of feminism is men and making space for dads.

Erin, a professional feminist and co-founder of Project Gender, shares her own ‘late’ journey into feminism alongside its history and the diverse range of opinions that exist within it.

Erin shares a range of evidence and practical examples that validate the need to continue to push for change and that she has learned and heard as she leads systems change in this space.
