In this episode, we chat with Olivia Dickinson, owner at Digital Olive, inclusivity consultant and campaigner at Let Toys Be Toys. Ahead of International Day of the Girl 2022, Olivia joins us to discuss the campaign and their latest research that challenges gender stereotyping in toys, books and their promotion. She also shares how the Womanthology community can get involved and make a difference.
