On this episode, we discuss the #MeToo Movement. Although it already gained global recognition in 2017, it still is and will always be a relevant topic to our society.

Since the beginning of 2021, #MeToo started to gain attention in Greece, which is the reason we decided to take the initiative and remind people about the history and background of #MeToo, as well as to talk about recent developments and our own experience.

Last but not least, we will discuss the situation in other countries regarding the movement, sexual assault and abuse as well as some initiatives and laws that #MeToo has inspired.

Note: We mention “rape” throughout the episode, but we do not get into details.
