“We have been given an invitation by COVID to reimagine our future. I hope people respond to the challenge because we have never needed it more.” Thanks @leighmrussell and @WayneKeithSmith it’s time to see, hear, recognise, learn from women in sport! #womeninsport @honourawoman https://twitter.com/marinasgo/status/1331442462414422016
“If we are serious about diversity and inclusiveness in sport then the question has to be asked: Why are there so few female leaders?” https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/olympics/leigh-russells-hard-slog-at-the-helm-of-swimming-australia/news-story/635fdb0b0954d46c877722f9d60b121a

Does it matter if there’s gender equality in the Order of Australia? Of course! Here’s what we think and thanks to @OurCommunityAU for hosting @WGEADirector for intro and @JennaPrice for chat! http://register.gotowebinar.com/recording/view… @CarolKiernan6 @hartnellyoung @hula_grl #RecognitionMatters
2Women, politics and boys' clubs: ‘If you needed any better example of what happens when you don’t have enough women in the parliament, this is it.’ Time for change! Go Ruth! @hula_grl @GuardianAus @BPWAust #wfea https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/nov/22/women-politics-and-boys-clubs-when-women-get-organised-watch-out
Just listened to a brilliant @OurCommunityAU webinar with founders of @honourawoman @hula_grl, @CarolKiernan6 and Elizabeth Hartnell-Young - 3 incredible women committed to ensuring women get recognition they deserve in Aus Honours. Here’s to structural reform to ensure equity!
We need to set 50% targets. All political parties need formal targets for honours and to reject the closed secret boys club we now have. Those awarded need to make more than a paid 'contribution' to our communities. Reject 'awards for the boys' with mere jobs however well paid. https://twitter.com/samsplace9/status/1329526035713388544
This campaign needs your support: we all know there are significant problems with our Honours system - think Abbot's knighthoods and the rest! Watch “Honour a Woman video” on #Vimeo https://vimeo.com/479754008?ref=tw-share
Fantastic webinar on the @honourawoman movement and great end to a #genderequity focused day. Highlighting their achievements but what also still needs to be done to embed equality in #Australia’s highest awards - and relevant to all award schemes!!! #nominateher #honourawoman https://twitter.com/CarolKiernan6/status/1329204858637803521
