In celebration of International Women’s Day 2025, Fawcett Talks will explore how documentaries and investigative journalism can challenge injustice, amplify women’s voices, and drive feminist activism.
In this exclusive in-conversation event, Alesha de Freitas, former Head of Policy, Research, and Advocacy at the Fawcett Society, and Daisy Ayliffe, an award-winning documentary producer, director, and investigative journalist, will discuss the power of storytelling in exposing hidden truths and shaping the fight for gender equality.
