Global funding cuts are worsening emergency aid's weaknesses when it comes to the LGBTQI+ community. The Trump administration is explicitly targeting trans people. And gender-related programming is among the first to be cut as humanitarian groups scale back. But there are steps humanitarians can take today – even amid widespread budget cuts – to better respond to the needs of LGBTQI+ people in emergencies. Guests:  Emily Dwyer, co-founder of the humanitarian and development organisation, Edge Effect. Jasmin Lilian Diab, director of the Institute for Migration Studies at the Lebanese American University. ____ Got a question or feedback?

The mental load isn't just yours to carry - it's a leadership issue. Learn how cultures that care can ease the juggle at work and at home. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of a global speaker series we delivered to our client, UKG, to explore why the mental load isn't just a personal struggle - it's a leadership issue. Together we unpack how invisible responsibilities at home and at work impact wellbeing, retention, and culture, and why building ‘cultures that care' matters for every organisation. Joining me to share the story are two inspiring UKG leaders who brought this initiative to life - Mille Holst-Barry and Jeremy Casupanan Together we discuss: - Why UKG decided to invest in this global iniative around the mental load - How conversations about the mental load can transform both workplaces and homes. - The personal and cultural nuances of mental load across families, genders, and geographies. - Why recognising the invisible tasks at work is vital for equity and retention. - The practical impact of addressing the mental load in the workplace This is an honest, inspiring, and hopeful conversation about how organisations can support their people to thrive and why every workplace should be talking about the mental load. Tune in and discover how small shifts in awareness can make a big difference in creating workplaces (and homes) where everyone can flourish.

Women make up half the population, but their rights have always been treated like a special request. In this episode we dive into the real history of women's rights in America: from forced sterilizations and credit card restrictions to the myth of the 19th Amendment being a universal win.

Nearly half of Kiwis think equality has already been achieved. And 1 in 3 young men think equality has gone too far. These results come from the National Council of Women of New Zealand's 2025 Gender Attitude Survey. Council President Dr Suzanne Manning says the views are outdated and entrenched. "What men see is being comfortable with the status quo, and all these rules that are put in could take their privileges away from them."

Welcome to a very special live edition of the Women Authors of Achievement Podcast, hosted for the first time in UK, right here at the Amano Hotel Skybar in London, overlooking Covent Garden. My guest today is Nikki Trott, strategist, podcast host and author of her new book Sacred Business. Her story bridges two worlds: the ambitious drive of London's fashion and branding industry, and the expansive, intuitive energy she discovered in Berlin.Nikki started out leading global fashion and lifestyle campaigns, working with big names across London and New York. But at some point, success as she knew it started to feel off. Thats when she made a radical choice, she left it all behind to follow a different kind of calling.In this conversation, we talk about what it means to walk away from conventional success, how Berlin helped her reconnect with her intuition, and why business can, and should, be an expression of who we are at our core.If you're in a moment of transition or simply craving more purpose in your work, hear this episode!Read more about the Women Authors of Achievement (WAA) Podcast via waa.berlin/aboutFollow us on Instagram & find us on LinkedInSubscribe to our newsletter via waa.berlin/newsletter ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

With just five years left to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), not a single gender equality target is on trackThe finding comes in the Gender Snapshot 2025 report issued on Monday by UN Women and the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA).Prior to the launch, UN News's Anshu Sharma spoke to Christine Arab, UN Women's Regional Director for Asia and the Pacific.She discusses the report and how women's groups there are ensuring their voices are heard, including in promoting climate resilience.  

Five years away from the 2030 deadline, none of the global gender equality targets are on track. From poverty to conflict, the setbacks are staggering.According to a new UN report launched on Monday, extreme poverty rates for women and girls have hardly moved in the last five years.Data shows that by the year 2030, there will be 351 million women and girls who live in the very worst forms of poverty around the world.But the report also points to real solutions, and what's possible when countries invest in women and girls.UN News's Ana Carmo sat down with Sarah Hendriks, Director of the Policy Division at UN Women, to discuss the main findings of the 2025 SDG Gender Snapshot report. 

In this episode, Olivia McKim and Daniel Moore speak with Claire Scorpo, an award-winning architect whose work bridges rigorous design thinking with deep social and community engagement. Claire's practice began with finely crafted residential projects that champion material sensitivity and passive design, and has since expanded to ambitious commercial and community-led developments. Her recent project, BVIA on Bank, is a groundbreaking female-led commercial development designed to promote gender equity and strengthen the role of women in the built environment. Our conversation explores Claire's belief in architecture as both a design discipline and a social catalyst. She reflects on her teaching, where students have worked alongside regional Victorian communities to address issues such as affordable housing, Indigenous engagement, mental health, and declining populations—revealing how architectural processes can forge meaningful civic relationships. Claire also discusses her longstanding advocacy through the Australian Institute of Architects, where her contributions to EmAGN, the Small Practice Forum, and juries led to her recognition as the 2023 Emerging Architect Prize winner for Victoria. Claire's story is one of thoughtful practice, consistent advocacy, and community-building. Her insights remind us that architecture is not only about producing buildings, but also about shaping equitable futures, strengthening communities, and amplifying diverse voices across the profession.

Interview by Kris PetersSince the Australian Women in Music Awards (AWMA) inception in 2018 almost 2000 individuals have been recognised with a nomination, with 1946 nominations from 2018 to 2024. Designed to provide an outlet to celebrate and reward women in the Australian music industry, AWMA has become a vital platform for recognising the vast contributions of First Nations and culturally diverse artists, musicians, technicians, photographers, journalists, leaders, artists with a disability and music practitioners from every corner of the sector.To be held on October 9 at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane, this year's ceremony features a spectacular line-up, including KATIE MILLER HEIDKE, MISSY HIGGINS, BABYSHAKES DILLON, and recently appointed AWM Chair SARAH MCLEOD.Founding Executive Producer and Program Director Vicki Gordon explains: "Our inaugural AWMA in 2018 paved the way for some of the most important change the industry has ever seen, igniting collaboration and support nationally for female and gender-diverse artists and music practitioners, First Nations and Multicultural artists and artists living in remote and regional areas. As we head into our sixth year, we are proud of the change and the shift AWMA has enabled - but there is so much more work to be done.”With the AWMA's drawing near, HEAVY sat down with Vicki to discuss the Awards, covering everything from the past, present and future of this wonderful initiative."Things are pretty intense at the moment," she smiled when we asked how preparations were going. "We're just under four weeks out from delivering the conference and the awards ceremony, and there are a lot of moving parts. It's become massive; a really, really big event. There's a lot going on with organising the artists and the programming for the awards ceremony. (Things like) the finalists, the conference programme, the speakers and the facilitators."We ask Vicki to go into more detail about the AMWAs, including what motivated her to establish the awards in 2018."I've worked in the music industry for a long time," she measured. "I've been a label manager, an artist manager. I've had the extraordinary opportunities to work with First Nations artists for the last three decades, right across this entire country, and I've been a video producer. I've worked in lots of areas, and in my time in the industry, it was always so obvious to me that women were really absent, particularly in a lot of the technical and production areas. I have been observing that for a long, long time. In the early 90s I established the Australian Women's Rock Institute, and that was way before Australian Women in Music Awards. I set that up primarily to address the status of women in the music industry, which was pretty appalling at that time."In the full interview, Vicki outlined the extensive preparations for the event, involving a large team focused on artist programming and conference logistics. As a not-for-profit charity, the event relies heavily on ongoing fundraising efforts and collaboration between a number of sectors, which she explained in greater detail.Vicki also mentioned her proactive approach to planning for the 2026 awards, highlighting the cyclical nature of organising such events. She shared her long-standing commitment to addressing the underrepresentation of women in technical and production roles within the music industry, which led her to establish the Australian Women's Rock Institute and the awards themselves.The conversation also touched on the importance of gender equality in the music sector, with Vicki emphasising the need for continued advocacy and research. She introduced the Women in Tech forum, featuring Brittany Long as a speaker, and addressed concerns about inclusivity for male attendees, affirming that their participation is welcome. The inclusion of heavy metal and associated genres in AWMA was discussed as well as Vicki's vision for the future of the awards. The discussion included details about ticketing for the awards and conference, as well as highlights of the event, such as the unique black carpet event and the awards ceremony featuring notable performers and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Listen in and feel heard, by the story of a woman who dedicates her work tirelessly to improve the positioning of women in leadership.When she started her career in corporate banking, and quickly moved through the ranks, to become a high-performer, Dr. Anino Emuwa noticed deeply rooted biases, when she became a mother, despite continuously presenting excellent results. She shares how she had to try hard to convince her colleagues, that she will not be working less, but differently and that everyone will need to get flexible. She realized how in general systematic issues beyond individual performance were holding women back.Dr. Anino shifted her focus to improving global business and society through gender equality leadership.She shares how she organically grew her global community 100 Women @ Davos including women from 109 countries. And emphsizes how change and shifts only happen when people work together towards a united goal and with a united purpose: full representation of women in leadership (even though at current pace this will approximately take another 200 years ...).She talks about barriers to women's leadership: historical workplace structures, socialization of both men and women in traditional roles, organisational policies and cultures that don't reward assertiveness in women, need for equipping women with knowledge and networks. We also discuss how men in leadership need to actively speak out and challenge hierarchical norms - still too little  men are vocal to drive significant change. Dr. Anino is a global expert on women's leadership and works at the intersection of emerging technologies, entrepreneurship and inclusion. She serves on the boards of several organisations, ,is a LinkedIn top voice on gender equity and a TEDx speaker. She served as a judge, coach and regional leader for the Cartier Women's Initiative.####On another note: I am so proud and excited to announce that SHIFT HAPPENS' Season 5 is supported by London based jewellery brand Tilly Sveaas.

Cleveland Browns assistant general manager Catherine Hickman made a fool of herself during a press conference. On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock reveals why Hickman is totally unqualified for her job, how DEI propelled her to the top, and why Hickman's embarrassing performance at the media briefing put the delusion of gender equality on full display. Whitlock also weighs in on Johnny Manziel saying he will hate the Cleveland Browns “forever”; Deion Sanders doubling down on his questionable use of time-outs in the Colorado Buffaloes' loss to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets; Malcolm Gladwell backing down from statements he made about trans athletes participating in women's sports; the origins of the beef between Ray Lewis and Shannon Sharpe; and how so much controversy is contrived through Twitter, which drives cowardice. Later on, Whitlock unpacks comments Mike Tirico made about University of Syracuse students wanting a celebrity career akin to Stephen A.

If you've ever felt like you're carrying the invisible weight of running both your home and your career, you're not alone. The mental load - the relentless planning, remembering, and anticipating that keeps family life moving - falls disproportionately on women, and it's leaving many of us exhausted, resentful, and stretched too thin. In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Dr. Kate Mangino, gender expert and author of Equal Partners, to uncover the truth about the mental load: what it really is, why it matters, and how we can begin to share it more equally at home.

There is no simple solution or singular approach to gender equality in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. But Anita Zaidi, President of the Gender Equality Division at the Gates Foundation knows that when women and girls can prioritize their own health and well-being, and be leaders in their societies, everyone benefits. In a piece for Harvard Public Health, Dr. Zaidi called for women's health to be a priority, "Systemic negligence-including the lack of effective treatments, poor care delivery, and the overall dearth of scientific research that centers women's health-has driven gender disparities in health outcomes."rnrnThrough her work at the Gender Equality Division, the Gates Foundation has invested in efforts that advance women's economic empowerment, improve and protect women's health and bodily autonomy, increase child survival and resilience, and more. Previously, Dr. Zaidi spent 30 years as a pediatrician and was Chair of Pediatrics and Child Health at the Aga Khan University in Karachi, Pakistan, where she worked to reduce child mortality through the prevention and treatment of newborn illnesses and vaccine-preventable diseases.

Is Australia still the Lucky Country? In public opinion polling, more and more Australians believe things are, on the whole, getting worse than better. Various data such as the longstanding Scanlon Social Cohesion Report point to society becoming polarised. A culture of suspicion continues to grow around our most important institutions, and loneliness and social isolation is common across our community. Against such concerning trends, what can be done? In this open discussion led by one of Australia's foremost social researchers, author and University of Sydney alumna Dr Rebecca Huntley, we address three key, interconnected issues that will have a defining impact on national progress and prosperity, for generations to come. Featuring Dr Marlee Bower (Matilda Centre and Sydney Environment Institute), digital innovation expert Dr Raffaele F. Ciriello, refugee advocate and UN Women Australia MBA scholar ('24) Chantal Mousad, and economist Dr Suneha Seetahul (Australian Centre for Gender Equality and Inclusion at Work).

What if climate change isn't just about the planet—but also about your plate?When we talk about climate change, we often think of rising sea levels or extreme weather. But one of its most personal, often overlooked impacts? Nutrition.As temperatures rise and heat stress becomes more common, the effects ripple through our food systems—altering what we grow, how we grow it, and even how our bodies absorb it. Climate change is not just environmental. It's nutritional. And it's starting to show up in our meals in quiet but serious ways.To explore this hidden link, we're joined by Dr. Ranjitha Puskur, Principal Scientist at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), and Lead of the Evidence to Policy Area at CGIAR's Gender Equality and Inclusion Accelerator. With a sharp focus on equity and resilience, Dr. Ranjitha helps us understand how climate change is impacting nutrition—especially for women, farmers, and vulnerable communities.We explore:• How rising temperatures and climate stress disrupt our food systems• What “heat stress” really means for staple crops like rice and wheat• Why women and low-income groups often bear the brunt• How climate change affects not just food—but our health directly• And what we must all understand about this growing crisisIf you care about food, farming, or the future of health—this episode is for you.About Nutrition Every Day: A special podcast series by The Good Sight and Rise Against Hunger India, bringing sharp, grounded insights on health and nutrition.For feedback or to participate, write to us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠contact@thegoodsight.org⁠⁠⁠⁠CreditsHost: Shreya MGuest: Dr. Ranjitha PuskurResearch: Alisha CShow Artwork: Rajnikant SProduced by: The Good SightConcept: The Good Sight & Rise Against Hunger India#NutritionEveryDay #ClimateAndNutrition #FoodSecurity #SmartFarming #TheGoodSight #IRRI #CGIAR #ClimateJustice #WomenInAg #PublicHealthIndia #FoodSystemResilience #BetterFoodBetterFuture

What does it mean to be a "feminist dad"? Maybe a better place to start is asking: what does it mean to be a feminist at all... and why is that term so controversial? There are many ideas and misunderstandings associated with the concept of feminism, and in August of 2021, we were fortunate to explore feminism and fatherhood with the brilliant Jordan Shapiro: author, educator, and senior fellow at the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop. In his acclaimed book, Father Figure: How to Be a Feminist Dad, Jordan unpacks how traditional ideas of masculinity shape our parenting, why inclusivity matters, and what it takes to raise "radically inclusive" kids in a rapidly changing world. Whether you're new to the topic or ready to challenge what you thought you knew, this Rewind episode is full of big ideas and practical takeaways.Topics include:•  Fatherhood as an evolving, not fixed, role shaped by changing ideas about masculinity and gender.•  Embracing feminism in parenting by modeling inclusivity, equality, and respect for all.•  Challenging traditional masculine norms and embracing vulnerability and growth as a dad.•  Prioritizing responsibility and adaptability over authority in fatherhood.•  The importance of self-reflection and open dialogue about gender, identity, and family roles.•  And more!LINKS:Farther Figure: How To Be a Feminist DadJordan Shapiro (official website)Jordan Shapiro (Twitter)Jordan Shapiro (Instagram)Red Vault AudioCaspar BabypantsSpencer AlbeeModern Dadhood (website)AdamFlaherty.tvStuffed Animal (Marc's kids' music)MD (Instagram)MD (Facebook)MD (YouTube)MD (TikTok) #moderndadhood #fatherhood #parenthood #parenting #parentingpodcast #dadding #dadpodcast
