The goal of this podcast is a pretty simple one: We hope to bring an intersectional feminist analysis to important social, economic and community issues impacting all of us here in Waterloo Region. This podcast uses a gendered lens to bring these issues to the forefront where we will discuss, reflect and create action. Each episode, we’ll chat on feminist topics and interview advocates involved in the feminist movement who have a stake locally, as well as those who have knowledge that can help our region evolve.
