How do we contextualise the movement for gender equality here in the Southeast Asian region? In conjunction with International Women’s Day, BFM speaks to Sharon A Bong, professor of gender studies from the School of Arts and Social Sciences at Monash University Malaysia. She has also co-edited the book Gender and Sexuality Justice in Asia (2020).
