Thrive | Joyce Wu | Ending violence against women


Listen Later

Violence against women is on the news everyday. It's happening in the workplace, on the streets and in people's home. Ending this violence starts with men, their behaviours and attitudes. And changing the social structures and norms which enable domestic violence and harassment starts with a conversation. Unfortunately, discussing gender equality is not always a top priority in pubs, locker rooms and Parliament House. But if men are willing to listen and reflect on their behaviour, we could see real societal transformation, so how do we encourage men to put women on the agenda? Joyce Wu’s research has taken her across the globe, and her insights could make a real difference.

A UNSW Centre for Ideas project, with podcast editing and music composition by Bryce Halliday.
