S4 Ep4 | Take on Complex Issues w/ Yulianna Frederika (Lepak Conversations)

Описание: There are a lot of misconceptions about activists. They’re seen as angry, anti-establishment, impulsive, divisive. The work is thought of as unpaid, unserious work. And the list goes on.

But what if activists could also be the people creating safe spaces for tough, necessary conversations? The ones engaging with stakeholders on all sides, especially when few dare to? And what if their time and professional skills were recognised and fairly compensated?

We'll talk about:
What does it mean to professionalise a ground-up group?
What are the pros and cons of online activism vs offline activism?
What are the unseen complexities and considerations involved in engaging with really tough topics that we wish could be more visible to others?
