Confronted by the state of democracy? Misinformation, rise of extreme parties, and public statements of cruelty by those elected?
Well there's still plenty to be optimistic about, especially when it comes to women taking an active interest in democracy: they're dedicating their careers to it, engaging in campaign sand even running for office. In some cases, they're launching startups aiming to strengthen democracy.
One such woman is Su Dharmapala, co founder of Polipedia, who joins for a conversation on women and democracy and the power of community.
We also discuss the women's vote in the lead up to the Federal election, coming very soon to Australia.
Check out more on Su's work here. And see how the Women's March led to the founding of two co founders launching the startup Polipedia here.
