Women's Rights Archives - Australian Speakers Bureau

Women have come a long way since they were considered chattels, and yet equality is still elusive in many areas of modern life.

From the pay gap, to the way that workplaces handle parental leave, there’s still work to be done to ensure that women have access to equal rights.

Australian Speakers Bureau Women’s Rights Speakers are activists, media personalities, author and academics who have spent their lives challenging the status quo and demanding better conditions, not only for women, but for all marginalised groups in society.

Find out what you need to do in order to close the gender equality gap in your organisation when you hear from a Australian Speakers Bureau Women’s Rights Speaker.
