In honor of International Women’s Day, we’re speaking to women all over the world who are working to advance equality for women and girls. In this episode, we speak with the founders of the Humanitarian Women’s Network, a 4200-member and growing, global network of professional women working in the aid and development sector. Elisabeth Faure, Rosalia Gitau, Capucine de Fouchier, Anika Kristic, and Sabina Robillard join us to discuss their 2016 survey on female aid workers which assessed the impacts of discrimination and harassment, sexual aggression and assault, reporting mechanisms and adjudication, and the impact of sexual harassment and assault on professional and personal well-being.
