Yoko Akama is a Japanese design-researcher based in Australia. She is an Associate Professor of RMIT University. We talk about a mentoring network that offers peer to peer support to women in Asia. And this led us to open the conversation to cultural differences, hierarchies, leadership and domestic practices of bathing and repairing. Here are Yoko's publications. This episode is part of the lists: D&D in English, Deconolizar, Australia y diseño, Japón y diseño, Diseño feminista and Diseño con perspectiva de género. Even though the titles of the lists are in Spanish, you can find episodes in these lists in English too. I am exploring how to make a multilingual podcast. Any suggestion on how to do it better is welcome. All the episodes in English can be found in the list D&D in English that at the moment has more than 40 episodes.
