In Candy’s ICFM Video for Change, she utilizes a sash and various tableaus to symbolize conceptions of gender inequality. Her ICFM op-doc calls us to consider the why of United Nations SDG 5:

Gender bias is undermining our social fabric and devalues all of us. It is not just a human rights issue; it is a tremendous waste of the world’s human potential. By denying women equal rights, we deny half the population a chance to live life at its fullest. Political, economic and social equality for women will benefit all the world’s citizens. Together we can eradicate prejudice and work for equal rights and respect for all.

Some videos and podcasts in these publications might include topics that some learners may find complex, offensive or traumatizing. We ask educators and learners help to create an atmosphere of empathy, mutual respect and sensitivity when exploring critical, systemic topics of social, environmental, and economic significance found in a number of these media productions.
