Women’s Aid Organisation, or WAO, is hosting a series of four talks to raise awareness about gender equality, in conjunction with the worldwide 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign. We hear from Yu Ren Chung, WAO's advocacy manager, and Melisa Mohd Akhir, the Women's Centre for Change's senior advocacy officer, explain the need for a campaign like this to further the conversation on domestic violence, pregnancy discrimination and sexual harassment in the workplace. If you'd like to donate to the cause, you can do so through this link for WAO and this link for WCC.
