So We Heard: Doris Discusses Social Policy and China's Three-Child Policy (Part 1‪)‬ Can You Hear Us?

    • Society & Culture

Prompted by our youngest team member’s desire for shorter podcasts on her regular commute to and from LSE, Can You Hear Us?  is proud to present So We Heard, a series of bite-sized, informal chats dedicated to exploring academic theories, case studies, and current affairs within international development through the lens of black, indigenous, and women of color (BIWOC). With episodes lasting 30 minutes or less, Can You Hear Us team members join assistant producer, Ragini Puri, on a quick deep-dive into what topic within development is peaking their
interest and why it matters. 

On this episode, Ragini is joined by Doris, the very team member who voiced her desire for shorter podcasts. They discuss China’s Three-Child Policy and it’s pros and cons.

Why does social policy subordinate economic policy?
What effect could China’s Three-Child Policy have on gender equality?
How could the policy lead to the feminisation of poverty?

We discuss this and a lot more in the sixth episode of So We Heard. Tune in to listen!
