Closing the gap on gender
by The Hand
I was recently chatting to a few colleagues at the Design Business Association (DBA) and the conversation turned to gender equality. As the owner and founder of an all-female business, they asked me to share my thoughts in an article they published yesterday.
COVID-19 has turned everything upside down. It’s revolutionised the way in which we work; possibly forever. And it’s presenting some really exciting ways in which the design sector can address ingrained and outdated practices. In a week where we have both International Women’s Day and a return to school for pupils, what a timely moment to look at ways in which changes to our workplace practices could benefit working parents, and in fact, us all.
