Caroline Criado Perez heeft jarenlang onderzoek gedaan naar de genderdatakloof – en hoe vrouwen simpelweg vergeten worden in een wereld die voor mannen is ontworpen. Haar bestverkopende boek, Invisible Women, werd met lovende kritieken gepubliceerd en Caroline werd overspoeld met lezers die hun eigen verhalen deelden over de ‘standaardman’.
In haar nieuwe podcast onderzoekt Caroline wat er daarna gebeurt: hoe kunnen we de genderdatakloof dichten en een wereld ontwerpen die voor iedereen werkt? Caroline gaat op zoek naar ontbrekende gegevens, gaat de strijd aan met productiebedrijven en vindt de mensen die eraan werken om de kloof in gendergegevens te dichten. Je hoort deskundige gasten, aangrijpende verhalen en volop inspiratie.
Caroline Criado Perez has spent years investigating the gender data gap – and how women are simply forgotten in a world designed for men. Her best-selling book, Invisible Women, was published to critical acclaim, and Caroline was inundated with readers sharing their own stories of the “default male”.
In her new podcast Caroline investigates what happens next: how can we close the gender data gap and design a world that works for everyone? Caroline will hunt for missing data, get in fights with manufacturing companies, and find the people who are working to close the gender data gap. You’ll hear expert guests, gripping stories, and plenty of inspiration.

If you ask any woman whether she’s happy with her contraception, chances are she’ll say no – but that she’s settled for the best of a bad bunch. In this episode, Caroline asks why our options are stuck in the 1960s. We take a deep dive into the history of family planning; we investigate the hurdles standing in the way of progress; and we uncover some ground-breaking forms of contraception that could one day be coming to a clinic near you.
