In this episode, Sofiia talks to Joanna Maycock, a seasoned professional with over three decades of experience in leadership roles. Joanna's journey has been marked by her tireless efforts to foster feminist leadership, combat various forms of injustice, alleviate poverty, and champion women's rights. Growing up during the 1970s, a period marked by heightened awareness of women's rights and the feminist movement, Joanna actively deconstructed children's literature with her mother to challenge gender stereotypes deeply ingrained within them. Despite the progress made since then, Joanna remains both astonished and indignant at the persistence of injustice and inequality in today’s world. Throughout her distinguished career, Joanna has channelled her passion into effecting positive change. She is deeply committed to constructing collaborative and optimistic pathways toward sustainable, all-encompassing feminist futures. Tune in to this episode to gain insights into Joanna's remarkable approach and methods for driving this transformation.If you want to connect to Joanna, check out her LinkedIn and Twitter accounts. Relevant links: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joanna_Maycock  https://www.politico.eu/list/the-women-who-shape-brussels/joanna-maycock/ https://apolitical.co/list/en/gender-equality-100-2019 https://www.womenlobby.org/Celebrating-Joanna-Maycock-7-years-as-EWL-Secretary-General https://www.linkedin.com/company/w100bxl/For more on VONA:Sign up for our monthly Newsletter at www.VONA.international  Instagram @vona.internationalTwitter @VONA_intLinkedIn VONA InternationalPodcast hosted by Sofiia ShevchukVisuals and podcast production by Tamas Viski Hosted on Acast.
