Women for Election: video conversations

Row of microphones in Parliament chamber

A collection of conversations between Women for Election Australia and female Australian politicians across the political spectrum and all levels of politics. Hear about their careers, their political inspiration and the issues they are passionate about.

Women for Election Australia aim to equip all women interested in taking part in political life with the knowledge and skills to feel confident in their ability to contribute in whatever way they choose. They do this through providing non-partisan training events, workshops and networking opportunities to inspire and equip more women to run for public office in Australia.
