Digital Dialogue #12: What would a gender-equal approach to remote working look like?

In our twelfth dialogue, moderated by malebo sephodi, our panellists discussed how working remotely doesn’t just offer women the possibility to find a balance between their work life and their family duties, but it also comes at a cost. For example, women are still less likely to be promoted, are underrepresented in leadership positions, get paid less and experience disadvantages after having children. Plus, our speakers faced challenging conversations around stereotypes, cultural norms and gender bias communication.
