It was a pleasure facilitating my first panel session (ever!) for the Women in STEM Careers program at @UofA_SET. Six amazing #superstarsofstem spoke to our cohort with such incredible vulnerability and wisdom. Thank you Superstars!

@malaria_meg Also - I’m told that ravens are one of four species thst@can communicate about something that is not directly in front of it. The others being ants, bees and humans.

[Alexis McKay @deibalexis]

@malaria_meg He can do the noises of each and thats basically how you tell the difference.

[Alexis McKay @deibalexis]

@malaria_meg My knowledgeable son tells me we have no crows in Adelaide / they are all ravens. Is this your understanding?

Adelaide #IWD2023 breakfast sobering, invigorating & uplifting in equal measure. Great to be with this lot (& 2791 others) hearing from Rosemary Wanganeen, @SenatorWong, Ambassador Caroline Kennedy & @alexisuofa on the progress, the hurdles & the work yet to come #CrackTheCode

We can’t move forward as a country while more than half of us are being held back.

Last week I launched a national survey so that all Australians can help shape our country’s first National Strategy for Gender Equality.
