Today we ask, what is intersectional feminism and how is art used as a form of activism? Feminism itself is a term which has multiple strains and meanings, and within this, intersectional feminism has come to the forefront to recognise the multiple identities someone can hold.
For this two-part special, we are joined by Yasmeen Mjalli, Founder and Creative Director of Nöl Collective. The Nöl Collective are an intersectional feminist and political fashion collective in Palestine.

Today, climate change is affecting all of us around the globe. It intersects not only with the environment but also politics, national security and human rights.

Today we are joined with Dr Simon Bradshaw from the Climate Council to discuss Australia's climate policy.
