Our latest news: 

Frankly Speaking – with Maureen Frank

1. Our first female Prime Minister was announced on June 24
2. The Paid Parental Leave scheme was passed on June 17
3. The Federal Sex Discrimination Commissioner released her Gender Equality Blueprint on June 23
4. The ASX released its final recommendations to its Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations on Gender Diversity on June 30

With regard to Julia’s appointment as PM, BRW Magazine is asking whether this means the glass ceiling has finally been broken. The same question was pondered when Quentin Bryce was appointed Governor General.  To me they are more like chips in windscreens I’m sorry to say. But all of this flurry and activity however does mean that the issues of gender equality in society, gender balance in the workplace and gender leadership by Australia’s government and corporate elite are all starting to gain momentum and that it is starting to be placed well and truly on agendas everywhere.

I am a proud ambassador for 1 Million Women.   A national campaign of daughters, mothers, sisters and grandmothers, inspiring climate action and leading change for the better.   Our goal is to inspire 1 million women of Australia to take practical action on dangerous climate change and collectively cut 1 million tonnes of CO2 pollution, the main greenhouse gas causing global warming.  That's 1 tonne for each of us.  

You don't need to be an expert on climate change and that's the great thing about the campaign.  The 1 Million Women website will guide you every step of the way by showing you the easy ways to cut 1 tonne of C02 pollution out of your daily life over a year. (and joining is FREE)

The power of women uniting for a common goal is unstoppable and more than ever we need to add our personal energy to overcoming the climate challenge for Australia and the world.  We are now 25000 women strong and our immediate goal is to increase our members to 30,000.
 
Please will you join me at www.1millionwomen.com.au.  Let's make our collective voice - the voice of women -  an irresistible force for climate action.
