Justice Plan - Women
AT HEADLONG IT’S OUR FIRM BELIEF THAT MAKING GREAT ART IS INEXTRICABLY LINKED WITH THE PURSUIT OF JUSTICE.
Justice for women has come some way in our industry, but there is still a significant distance to go. Our hope is that through systemic change at Headlong we can help to address this imbalance.
As we tackle structural inequality at Headlong, the intersectionality of justice will be present throughout our planning, encompassing disability, class, LGBTQIAA+ communities, religion and gender.
Please click below to view our Justice Plan for women, where we have drawn action points and the practical ways in which we intend to achieve them. This is a working document and will remain under constant review.
As we tackle structural inequality at Headlong, we acknowledge that there is not one experience of being a woman, and the intersectionality of justice will be present throughout our planning. This is our ‘Justice Plan: Women’ and is the third part of our wider justice plans at Headlong; it will be published alongside our Justice Plan: LGBTQIAA+, which can be found on our website. Our previously published Justice Plan: Race can be found here, our Justice Plan: Disability can be found here. We continue to work on plans related to Climate and Socio-Economic Justice. These are ‘working documents’ and will evolve as we learn and grow.
Nb. In this plan we use the term ‘women’ to mean all women, including trans women and anyone who identifies as a woman. For anyone identifying as non-binary or gender-fluid, there are dedicated actions in our ‘Justice Plan: LGBTQIAA+’, which has been released in parallel. As the language and terminology surrounding these issues is constantly evolving, this document will remain under review.
Headlong would like to thank Tonic Theatre for their time consulting on this document.
