Gender Equality with Tena Pick: Part 2

The statement “A man would never let a woman see him cry or be vulnerable” applies worldwide, even in our own families where gender equality is seen as a must in things such as education yet the men aren’t encouraged to show their emotions or be vulnerable.  In this truly enlightening episode, Tena Pick continues her discussion on gender inequality. She notes that although the gender roles of women have changed drastically over the years, those of men have not changed very much. She provides her perspective on how men and young boys are the keys to gender equality because patriarchy affects them as much as it affects women. This creates the need for us to treat gender empowerment holistically and approach it from a different perspective. Tena Pick gives her advice to parents who want to create a gender-equal/neutral world for their children. She also shares with us her take on how the pandemic has affected gender equality. Not only do we get to hear about Tena’s professional journey, but we also get a sneak peek into her very inspiring personal life and the hurdles she had to overcome to be here. Tune in to be inspired and learn about her advice to aspiring changemakers!
