What We Get Wrong About Gender Equality – with Cordelia Fine
King's Building, Strand Campus, London

In her latest book, Patriarchy Inc., Cordelia Fine examines persistent inequalities in our workplaces and their significant impacts on our lives.
She explores how, despite decades of commitment to gender equality, the most lucrative industries remain male-dominated while many men believe they are the ones facing discrimination.
She also investigates how these workplace disparities affect everything from economic security to family life, revealing the hidden mechanisms that maintain the status quo.
Join us as we discuss Fine's book and her insights into how workplace structures continue to privilege men, why post-MeToo efforts have failed to create lasting change, and what genuine equality for all might look like.
