Why women are queuing up for equality

This content was published on

I am an experienced video journalist passionate about making complex topics accessible and engaging through compelling multimedia storytelling. Focused on social and environmental issues, I produce various video formats on a wide range of topics, specialising in impactful explainer videos with motion graphics and stop-motion animation. During my studies in cinema, English literature and journalism, I’ve gained experience in radio, television, and print across Switzerland. After working with the Locarno Film Festival’s image & sound team, I joined SWI swissinfo.ch in 2018 to produce local and international reportages.

Longer queues for the ladies’ toilets and higher chances of injuries in car accidents for women can be explained by the gender data gap. Researchers are investigating the phenomenon and say that products and spaces aren’t designed for human use: they’re designed for male use.
