This season, produced in partnership with Africa No Filter, explored and challenged gender norms across the continent. We intentionally invited men into the conversation, recognising that meaningful discussions about gender require participation from all genders — even when imperfect. The men featured were not positioned as experts, but as participants in an open dialogue. Some views may have felt confronting. Our intention was not to provide definitive answers, but to create space for honest exchange — reflecting the realities and tensions that exist across society. This project was about opening conversation, not closing it. About making room for reflection and growth. We remain committed to thoughtful storytelling and appreciate Africa No Filter’s partnership in support
