Every year International Women's Day comes and goes. Rather than go back to business as usual, we say it should Never Not be International Women’s Day. Welcome to a mind-changing, bias-ridding, downright mutinous loop of ideas and musings from women in the creative and associated industries everywhere that will run 24/7/365 on a loop forever, or until...we don’t need to talk about it anymore.
The events of 2025 are already reinforcing that women are still a long way from equality and equity. Globally, women bear the brunt of the physical, emotional and financial impacts of economic, financial and political decisions with their livelihoods affected at almost twice the rate of men.
As International Women’s Day comes and goes, we say enough really is f*cking enough.
Enough of our stoicism. Enough of our patience. Enough of the injustice. It will be Never Not International Women’s Day until all women including women of colour, women with disabilities, and queer or trans women, stop being penalised for being women.
Dr. Amanda Coles focuses on intersectional inequality in the creative industries. Amanda shares her belief that people make culture and not the other way round. The centre of her discussion with Angela focuses on challenges of employment and the economic structures that are holding back gender equality efforts.
