#empowHER 2022 Podcast Series Episode Two: How Education is Breaking The Bias
The #empowHER podcast is back! Aligned with the theme for International Women’s Day this year, the series will be focusing on how to #BreakTheBias surrounding gender inequality.
In this episode are joined by Marc Epprecht, professor of History and Global Development Studies at Queen’s University and Drew Bowshell, Executive Director of FINCA Canada to discuss the importance of women’s education.
We take a deep dive into how gender inequalities impact access to education in the Global South. Marc and Drew discuss the importance of providing proper education to women, the impacts that occur when a girl is denied their right to an education and how FINCA is breaking the bias surrounding gender and education.
Education is a human right, which girls across the globe are being exempted from.
