Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson discusses how Brexit may affect women, the role women played during the EU referendum in 2016 and how the fall in GDP could impact on the fringe of women's rights. She was joined by senior fellow at The UK in a Changing Europe Professor Catherine Barnard and podcaster James Millar.

Last week saw a record number of the world's elite flying their private jets to Davos for the World Economic Forum. Oxfam reported that in the 10 years since the financial crisis, the number of billionaires around the world has nearly doubled. It’s fair to say, the economy isn’t working for everyone. Every week on this podcast we look at a different economic problem and how to solve it, but what if economics itself – the way we teach it, talk about it and think about it – is the real problem? Ayeisha Thomas-Smith is joined by three people working to democratise economics and change how it's taught across the country: co-director of Rethinking Economics Maeve Cohen, Chief Exec of Economy Joe Earle, and Polly Trenow from the Women's Budget Group.
