International Women's Day event for Moreland City Council:
This year’s special event will be a celebration of IWD with a keynote speech from Santilla Chingaipe - journalist, documentary film-maker and writer, but it will also focus on community engagement and feedback on the key issues facing the community in reaching gender equality.
Roundtables will be facilitated by some amazing local community leaders including Alison Rowe - CEO of MEFL, Annette Sax - Managing Director of Yarn Strong Sista, Frances Tapueluelu - Artist, Councillor Natalie Abboud - Deputy Mayor of Moreland, Councillor Helen Davidson, former Mayor of Moreland and Russ Pirie - YGLAM Youth Theatre Director. The issues discussed will feed into Moreland Council’s review of the Statement of Commitment to Women: http://www.moreland.vic.gov.au/about-us/have-your-say/consultations/review-of-the-moreland-statement-of-commitment-to-women.
We will also be hosting further focus groups for the review over the next couple of months for the Statement of Commitment to Women, community members or groups can get in touch if they would be interested in hosting or taking part in one.
Thanks so much for your support- we would love to have as many voices on this important issues as possible!
