Women's Voices - Front and Centre

from Scottish Independence Podcasts · host YesCowal Podcasts

In this episode of IndyPodcasters, hosts Fiona and Marlene sit down with guest Jacqui Jensen to explore how we can reconnect women with politics — wherever they are. From local communities to the national stage, we discuss why women’s voices must be at the heart of political decision-making and how inclusive conversations can drive real change and shape our nation. Together, we unpack what’s keeping women disengaged, share practical ways to reach out across divides, and highlight the power of more local democracy in shaping policies that truly reflect women’s lives. If you care about women in politics, grassroots activism, and ensuring female voices are front and centre in our national dialogue, this episode is a must-listen. 🎧 Tune in to discover how we can build a more equal, engaged, and representative democracy — one conversation at a time key themes: 00:01:12 Re-engaging women in politics 00:09:36 Bringing women into the conversation 00:15:44 Reaching women where they are 00:21:18 The power of more local democracy 00:23:40 Women in national politics 00:25:40 Is Holyrood making life harder for itself? 00:32:29 Next steps #democracy #womensvoices #grassrootsactivism The Indypodcasters team produce a NEW podcast episode every Friday search for Scottish Independence Podcasts wherever you get your podcasts.
