I AM AN EQUAL
I AM AN EQUAL
THE THINK TANK
Question. Discuss. Challenge. Reimagine.
I Am an Equal is building a women-led Think Tank where real experiences, ideas and questions can become meaningful conversations.
This is not about everyone agreeing.
It is about creating space for women to think, speak, question inherited assumptions and contribute perspectives shaped by real life.
WHAT DO WE TALK ABOUT?
Conversations may explore subjects such as:
equality in everyday life · expectations placed on daughters, wives and mothers · identity after marriage · ageing and independence · divorce and remarriage · caregiving · work and career · money and financial independence · entrepreneurship · relationships · social expectations · confidence and visibility · family roles · cultural traditions · changing ideas about women and men
Topics may come from members, community conversations, current events or questions raised by women themselves.
HOW DOES THE THINK TANK WORK?
Participation may include:
small-group conversations · online discussions · roundtables · interviews · written reflections · surveys · community questions · guest speakers · workshops · recorded conversations · special discussion sessions
Participation can vary depending on the topic and the woman’s interest and availability.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO AGREE
A Think Tank is not useful if everyone says the same thing.
Women may bring different experiences, cultures, professions, generations and opinions.
Respectful disagreement is welcome.
The aim is not to create one approved opinion. The aim is to hear more than one way of seeing the world.
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE CONVERSATIONS?
Ideas and themes from discussions may lead to:
newsletter articles · community conversation notes · interviews · videos and Reels · public discussions · workshops · future research topics · campaigns · events · practical community initiatives
Personal or private information should not be published without appropriate permission.
FOUNDING VOICES
Founding Voices are the women who helped give I Am an Equal its earliest shape and presence.
Some may participate actively in discussions, while others may contribute occasionally.
Being a Founding Voice does not require someone to hold a formal role or participate in every activity.
PRIVACY & PARTICIPATION
Women may participate in different ways.
Some may choose to appear publicly with their name and photograph.
Others may prefer to contribute ideas, conversations or written material without having their image displayed publicly.
Participation and public visibility are separate choices.
JOIN A THINK TANK CONVERSATION
You do not need to be an academic, activist or public speaker.
If you have lived, observed, questioned, learned or changed your mind about something, you may already have something worth contributing.
A QUESTION WORTH ASKING
What does equality look like in everyday life — not in law, but at home, at work and in relationships?
