Beyond Kate is a podcast that traverses stories from past to present, exploring themes across 8 episodes that address women's suffrage in New Zealand and the complex, hidden and nuanced challenges that women face in a society where the rules continue to shift.

Producer Sonia Sly meets contemporary women who share their thoughts on education, work, diversity, gender and more. And she meets historians, archivists and descendants of women who signed the 1893 petition to unlock the history of the suffrage petition that won women the right to vote in the 1893 election.
