Two years on from #MeToo – what have we learnt?

OBE Chapel, St Paul’s Cathedral, St Paul’s Churchyard, London, EC4M 8AD
It’s two years since the world was rocked by allegations about high-profile men harassing women, who often felt they had to stay silent in order to keep their jobs. As the social media storm grew, more and more stories emerged from around the world and in every workplace sector. Women at all levels of working life had experienced discrimination, sexualised behaviour, and abuse. Has anything changed since then?
This event will reflect on the last two years: the nature of debate, the experiences of women and men, and the consequences for working life.
Speakers include:
- Sarah Churchman OBE, Chief Inclusion, Community & Wellbeing Officer, PwC
- Ayesha Hazarika, journalist and political commentator
- Dr Katie Edwards, University of Sheffield
- Sarah Whitehouse QC, Senior Treasury Counsel, 6KBW
