This podcast is a three part series about WorkerTech and how technology can help empower workers - especially those in low-skilled jobs and on low incomes. We explore how the nature of work has changed, we talk about how tech can help give workers a voice, and we wrestle with the Gig Economy. All that, and more!

International Women’s Day podcast 2018

It's International Women's Day so we’ve decided to do something different from our usual podcast. We decided to shut up.

This podcast is a chance for you to hear the stories of what it’s like to be a woman working in tech today. These are first hand stories. They are true. And we should all listen and reflect.
