This past week Australia celebrated NAIDOC Week, a time to reflect on the culture, history and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. This year's theme was #BecauseOfHerWeCan, putting the spotlight on Indigenous women's central role in overlapping areas, from family, to community organisations, to social justice. Head to my blog to read about two events I attended. One was a panel hosted at the Twitter offices in Sydney, the land of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. It focused on women's leadership in academia, journalism and business. The other was hosted at Tranby, Australia's oldest not-for-profit education centre. The panel discussed Indigenous women's leadership in public service and the importance of kinship. Link in bio!
33% of migrants & 46% of Indigenous people experience racism in public, yet few people intervene. This can happen due to bystander bias, the psychological response where people will not act if other people are also witness to an emergency. This includes when they see racism at work or on public transport - everyone freezes thinking someone else will do something, but then no one does. How do we overcome bystander bias and take anti-racism action? Some tips from a talk I gave on my blog. Link in bio!
Tech is the single biggest industry employer of men in Australia, but women only make up a quarter of this workforce. Companies invest big in the latest technologies to stay ahead of the game. Why don't they invest in minorities and White women in the same way? I spoke at Readify earlier this year, providing some tips for making workplaces more welcoming and proactive on diversity.
