The struggle for equality in the workplace has focused on getting more women on boards or in the political sphere for years. However, where this has led to some achievements, the way that we value some work over others continues to distort our economy and undermine equity and advancement for women.

Child care, volunteer work, and parental care are fundamental for the well-being of our society. Yet, first, these activities are usually relegated to women, which means they are undervalued. This in turn makes the economic gap between mothers and non-mother greater than the one between women and men. While #MeToo seemed to advance the role of women at work, more recently we seem to have taken two steps back.

In this episode, Alison and Jerome discuss gender equality and shifting power dynamics in the workspace with Laetita Vitaud.
