No Second Class Citizens
Throughout the history of humanity, women have been treated as second-class citizens. We have been seen as minorities, despite representing 50% of the world's population, and when it comes to leadership, we have consistently been underrepresented. This situation leads to our needs being sidelined. That is why, in this podcast, I want to place women where we rightfully belong: as first-class citizens.
A lo largo de la historia de la humanidad las mujeres hemos sido tratadas como ciudadanas de segunda categoría, hemos sido miradas como minorías cuando representamos el 50% de la población mundial y en términos de liderazgo constantemente hemos estado subrepresentadas, lo cual hace que nuestras necesidades también pasen a segundo plano. Es por eso que en este podcast, quiero poner a las mujeres en el lugar que nos corresponde, como ciudadanos de primera.
