Apr 21, 2022•23 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
In order to explore the different care inequalities that directly feed into gender imbalances across all spheres of life, Labour MP for Birmingham and Shadow Minister Jess Philips is interviewed by Laeticia Thissen (FEPS Policy Analyst for Gender Equality). Building on the realities made evident by the EU Care Atlas launched by FEPS and the Friedrich-Ebert Stiftung and the complex relationship between motherhood and equality, this podcast puts the finger on how care deficits permeates into various other gender gaps, including politics, and how female politicians have a central role in changing conventional ways of doing politics and in shifting the priorities towards a care-oriented society.
