42. Anchoring gender equality

It may be 2022, however, we as a society still have a long way to go in terms of gender equality.

In conjunction with International Women's Month, we spoke with Jernell Tan, the Information & Communications Officer at All Women's Action Society (AWAM) regarding the state of gender equality in Malaysia, period poverty, the Anti-Sexual Harassment Bill 2021 as well as how men could be better allies to the cause, amongst others.

If you are currently facing any issues such as unwanted sexual harassment, we deeply encourage you to seek out the help of professional women's rights organizations such as AWAM, WAO, and The National Council for Women's Organisations Malaysia (NCWO).
