To mark International Women’s Day, SSPA has invited Jo Cribb to present their next Kai & Kōrero: Learning over Lunch session. Jo will share her practical insights on how the Social Services sector can continue the fight for fair pay.
From her research and mahi, Jo will briefly outline the current realities of the gender and ethnic pay gap in Aotearoa New Zealand – and, crucially what can be done to change this. After this introduction, the session will be opened up for discussion. Learn more about STILL Minding the Gap.
