We are very honoured here at @iwdcanberra to be joined by the Ambassador for Women and Girls - Christine Clarke @AusAmbGender #IWD2022 #changingclimates
"What is the contribution that WE can make" - an important question for us all to ask of ourselves @lmdo
The incredible @janegoodallau shares her inspiring words of wisdom on the role of female icons and the representation of women in leadership positions "don't aim to be an icon, just passionately do what you do" #changingclimates @UNWomenAust
The inspiring @janegoodallau recounts the words of a Chief she met in Sth America "our tribe is like an eagle - one wing is male, one wing is female, and only when our wings are equal can our tribe fly" never a truer word spoken @UNWomenAust #IWD2022
We are absolutely thrilled to have the incredible @janegoodallau join us virtually today at the @UNWomenAust #IWD2022 event. What an absolute inspiration to us all. #changingclimates

Current estimates, we won’t achieve #genderequality for 135 years. @SimoneClarkeANZ calls for everyone - men too - to ask “what is the roll you will play” b/c 135 years is too long. When will she be right? She’ll be right when she’s equal @iwdcanberra. m.youtube.com/watch?v=drLUPJ…
#whenwillsheberight "when she is safe at home, on the streets, online, living a life free from violence and abuse, in control of her own finances, when she achieves greater representation of leadership here & globally - she'll be right when she is equal" @SimoneClarkeANZ
Our very own CEO @UNWomenAust @SimoneClarkeANZ reminds us of the disproportionate impact on women and girls in disaster zones and reminds us that gender equality is all of our responsibilities. #whenwillsheberight #changingclimates
