Melinda Tankard Reist from Australia’s ‘Collective Shout’ joins Simon O’Connor to talk about their latest research. Collective Shout, along with Maggie Dent, surveyed over 1,000 teachers and discovered a disturbingly high level of sexual harassment of girls and teachers including from children in kindergarten! The result of increasing access to porn, social media, and malign influencers – the results will shock you!
Simon and Melinda also talk Collective Shout’s wider work to confront the the objectification of women and the sexualisation of girls. It’s a confronting chat, but an important one for all parents to know.
