Learn skills to navigate everyday conversations, handle tricky topics and strengthen your relationships.
Running from 12 to 26 March, these workshops explore how gender ideas shape our daily interactions, how unconscious bias works, and how small changes in how we talk and listen can create more inclusive spaces.
