A Feminist Development Policy: Intersectionality, gender & the economy (3/5)

A Pathway Towards Feminist Global Collaboration
In the third instalment of our five-episode series on feminist development policy we discuss how the tool of intersectionality can help us illuminate some of the root causes of inequality, which often go unquestioned. We discuss how the current and dominant economic system perpetuates gender, racial and many more injustices, while exploring alternatives that center human rights, gender justice and care.
Join us as we hear what feminist development policy must keep in mind to ensure intersectionality is not just another buzzword applied loosely throughout the sector.
A podcast with:
• Veena Singh, Feminist Development Practitioner and Consultant
