Event details
Council will be holding an International Women's Day Expo, ‘Empower Yourself’, on Thursday 6 March at the Redgum Function Centre from 10am to 2pm.
The International Women' Day theme for 2025 is 'Accelerate Action'. The theme recognises that, at the current rate of progress, it will take 134 years to reach full gender parity (World Economic Forum). It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face.
The Expo highlights this year’s theme to provide women with the information they need to help them advocate for themselves and their children and rebuild their lives after Domestic and Family Violence.
Themes that will be showcased during the Expo, that women need to be self-sufficient in, include:
- Legal information/assistance.
- Study and training opportunities.
- Tax related assistance.
- Employment opportunities.
- Health and wellbeing.
- Childcare.
Let’s accelerate action to break down barriers and build a future of equality.
