Join us for the third season of Alright, Now What?, a podcast that’s all about systemic change and the journey towards gender justice. This season we’re partnering with our friends at the Equality Fund and Community Foundations of Canada to bring you 4 jam-packed episodes with incredible guests who are engaged in fundraising and feminist activism. We'll be digging deep into feminist philanthropy, and how can we redefine the future of giving.

To end gender-based violence before it starts, we need violence prevention and intervention. And rather than seeing violence as something inevitable, advocates view it as something that can be ended with the right mix of policy, practice, funding, services, supports, and education. We're closing this season by speaking to Rachael Crowder, the Executive Director of the Prince Edward Island Rape and Sexual Assault Centre, and Lisa Jewell,  the Outreach and Housing Coordinator at Fort Saint John Women's Resource Society.

When we think about gender-based violence, we tend to think about physical abuse. But there are hidden forms of violence, including manipulation, control, name-calling, gaslighting, and isolation, that often go unaddressed. This week, we're chatting with Anuradha Dugal and Jacqueline Hall about what emotional abuse looks like in the COVID-19 pandemic, and what we can do about it. 

In times of crisis, inequality grows and vulnerable communities can be left behind. That's why the Canadian Women’s Foundation and The Body Shop Canada are teaming up during the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence (Nov. 25 to Dec. 10) to #ActTogether and encourage people to take action on gender-based violence in Canada.

We’re working on bringing you a second season, and we’re so excited about it. But for now, we have some pressing new data we need to share with you.

We’ve spent four episodes breaking down just how deeply COVID-19 is impacting women, and particularly low-income, racialized, and gender-diverse folks. But the question remains – what are we doing about it? And how can you help? This final episode is about the future of us, and that means all of us.

This week we're talking about the Me Too Movement, workplace harassment during the pandemic, and what we can do to end it for good. Join us as we discuss the climate surrounding sexual violence in Canada with our own Keetha Mercer and Michelle Squires.

This week, we're talking about how the pandemic has impacted the women's sector, and the future of gender equality in Canada. Join us in conversation with Pamela Uppal, a Policy Director with the Ontario Nonprofit Network, and our own Anuradha Dugal.
