Podcast Overview

QAW explores fashion, gender expression at work, what belonging looks like and what organisations have succeeded in creating this in West Africa, what roles are available to queer people, beyond the creative industry. At QAW, we normalise the specific challenges the LGBTQIA+ community experiences at work to reduce the isolation that accompanies these challenges. We also explore different resources that can be helpful to the listener and finally, contribute to building resilience and preparedness for the world of work. This project will be done in partnership with UsTherapy.
