FORWARD (Foundation for Women’s Health Research and Development) is the leading African women-led organisation working to end violence against women and girls (VAWG). The Let’s Talk Sis podcast is hosted by our Young Women's Advisory Council (YWAC) where they come together to discuss the intersectional issues facing Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and Refugee (BAMER) women from politics to pop-culture.
In this week’s episode, the girls shed a light on the harsh realities of the colonial legacy in Britain today. We discuss the treatment of Meghan Markle to start an all important conversation on racism and perceived ‘Britishness’. From the Windrush Scandal, to Shamima Begum - what are the terms and conditions of being British?
On the first episode of the Let’s Talk Sis we introduce FORWARD and the Young Women’s Advisory Council (YWAC) featuring an interview with our Executive Directior, Naana Otoo-Oyortey MBE and Head of Global Advocacy and Partnership, Adwoa Kwateng-Kluvitse. We discuss their career journey as leading women in the field of international development and advocacy to end violence against women and girls.
