Avenger of the Week | Fired Up About Gender Inequality

The community is speaking up and we’re so inspired and impressed!

Thanks for tagging us in posts on social when you saw gender imbalance, gender inequality or witnessed GenderAvengers speaking up about a lack of women experts. This week it seemed like manels (all-male panels) were a recurring theme in the start-up and healthcare industries. 

These tweets pretty much sum up everything we’ve been feeling this week…

Last week we talked about the importance of pairing our advocacy with action steps and resources. A special nod to Women in Medicine and The Brussels Binder for their respective speaker databases:

Let’s keep the manel-fighting energy alive by holding organizations, conferences, and communities accountable! Tag us in conversations on social media that need amplification, let us know when someone is advocating for gender equality, and follow our “Fight The #Manel” Twitter List.

🔥✊ Who’s fired up about gender inequality? This week’s #GenderAvenger #AvengersOfTheWeek are Emma Sinclair MBE, Dr. Michelle Scoullar, Yinzertastic, Molly Cain, Women in Medicine, and The Brussels Binder.
