Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Myth: Care work is low value
Q: What policy changes would help value care more?
Policies should treat care as a public good, provide fair wages and safe conditions for workers, grant landed status to migrants, subsidize care for those who cannot afford it, and expand publicly funded care facilities to reduce dependence on private markets.
Myth: Entrepreneurship is all about profit
Q: What policy changes could support emancipatory entrepreneurship?
Policies should address psychological barriers, provide holistic support (life skills, mentorship, community networks), and enable region-specific approaches rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
Myth: Entrepreneurship is all about profit
Q: What is emancipatory entrepreneurship and why does it matter for 2SLGBTQI Plus communities?
Emancipatory entrepreneurship shifts focus from individual profit to breaking down barriers, addressing discrimination, and building inclusive economic environments that empower entire communities.
Myth: Entrepreneurship is all about profit
Q: What do you think of when you hear the word entrepreneur?
The guest explains a broadened view of entrepreneurship that centers community, autonomy, and systemic change rather than just profit, especially for marginalized groups.
