Have you heard the term "Pink Tax"? Why are products marketed to women often more expensive than those marketed to men, even when they’re nearly identical? What does this say about the way gender roles and consumerism intersect in today’s global economy? In this thoughtful, globally aware discussion, we’ll examine the “pink tax” — a hidden but widespread form of gender-based pricing.

Whether you’ve experienced this firsthand or are just learning about it, this conversation is for anyone interested in marketing, gender equity, consumer rights, and the power of awareness._x000D_
