Male Allies And Promoting Gender Equality In The Veterinary Profession - Malcolm Morley | VETchat by The Webinar Vet

This VETChat episode is part of our series on supporting and empowering women in veterinary, hosted by Kathryn Bell. Joining Kathryn today is Malcolm Morley, President of the BVA (British Veterinary Association). In this episode, Kathryn and Malcolm discuss the topic of male allies and promoting gender equality in the veterinary profession. Malcolm talks us through the BVA study with the University of Exeter on gender discrimination, he explains what allyship is, and how there may be unintentional bias in practice such as the language used. They discuss how important it is to create equity in the profession, ensuring there is inclusion for all, and making sure that we are calling things out with kindness. Finally, Malcolm also shares tips on how to improve practice culture to create a safe space to have these conversations, and where to find more resources. Read the University of Exeter's Study here
