    The Future of Feminism? Ep5 - Wikitoria Kurene

    In this kōrero, Wiki shares her personal and professional experiences as a Māori, Samoan indigenous wāhine working in wāhine ora health promotion. Inspired by the amazing wāhine in her life, she is driven to advocate for change as she sees the barriers and struggle to advocate for yourself as an indigenous woman. Wiki believes that communities will transform the way health is delivered and that working alongside clinicians, relationships and trust can build towards better outcomes for women. The Future of Feminism? is a series of kōrero exploring a range of issues related to gender equity and equality, hearing the stories of those leading change in this area and examining the role of feminism in addressing these issues. Gender equality and equity are still massive issues globally and locally. While people will say that we’ve come a long way, we’ve not come far enough. Previous waves of feminism have improved things for some, but excluded others. We ask those leading change what the role of feminism might be in that future or if there’s a different, better movement for us to unite under. You can find a full bio for each guest and links to the resources and links they shared here. The series is a collaboration between Leadership Lab, Project Gender and PlainsFM. Leadership Lab is committed to creating impact aligned with five key areas of impact - this initiative aligns with two of them, Radical Inclusion and Hauora & Wellbeing.
