In celebration of International Women's Day, PDG Shia Smart did an excellent impromptu presentation focusing on Unconscious Bias, and led a discussion on the same.
 
The concept of 'Unconscious Bias ' was introduced with the video

P.S. 
Several years ago, RCN sponsored our daughter Celeste to attend RYLA.
She now works as a senior researcher for WGEA and has some input into the report above.
Incidentally, the Director of the Agency is Mary Woolridge who shared the Liberal Senate ticket with Bruce Atkinson and used to be State Liberal Senator representing this area for many years.
 
I know some of our members / partners know Celeste, and have an interest in her work on gender equity and domestic violence.
She worked at ANROWS ( Australian National Research Organisation for Women's safety) for several years prior to accepting a position at WGEA.
  Celeste was the lead researcher at ANROWS on the recently published
