Podcasts as a mobilization tool
The Mothers Step In podcast series produced by Magneto is designed to encourage Mothers from all walks of life who want to protect their children’s future to take part in concrete actions in their communities. At the heart of this grassroots movement is the belief that we cannot protect the health and security of those to whom women give life without protecting the climate and life on earth.
In the current COVID-19 context, coming together virtually around a Mothers Step In podcast is an alternative to a physical gathering claim, Mothers Step In co-founders Laure Waridel and Anaïs Barbeau Lavalette: “The climate crisis remains central as well as our call to action. We are demanding for political courage to protect the health and safety of our children and entire populations. What we are currently experiencing with the pandemic is an example of the kind of crisis that we must avoid by acting now,” they add.
The Mothers Step in podcast series, set to a tone of strength and tenderness, conviction and rigour, is an empowerment tool for mothers, women and their allies. Each of the episodes opens-up onto the future, catalysing an urgency for mothers and women to take action within their communities and providing strength to listeners.
Catherine-Eve Gadoury, journalist, columnist, and radio host for the past 15 years with Radio-Canada, Artv and Matv in Quebec City will host the series. The series’ prologue is performed by three actresses: Macha Limonchik, Natalie Fontalvo and Véronique Côté.
