An inspiring International Women’s Day event

On Wednesday March 5, doctors rallied together ahead of International Women’s Day for an inspiring evening of leadership, learning and action. Together, they explored practical ways to advance gender equality in healthcare, guided by trailblazing leaders and meaningful discussions.

The theme of the night was to break barriers, drive change and shape a more equitable future in healthcare.

Special guest speaker Dr. Niki Vincent, Victoria’s first Public Gender Equality Commissioner explored the power of leadership in advancing systemic change.

Stephanie Tully, CEO of Jetstar joined us live via video link for an exclusive Q&A on leadership lessons from aviation and their relevance to healthcare.

Thank you to the attendees who engaged in dynamic discussions with peers and leaders, exploring practical strategies to foster equity in their workplaces.

In support of safety and equality for all, a portion of ticket sales were donated to Safe Steps Family Violence Response Centre. We encourage all to consider further supporting their vital work.

With special thanks to our valued supporter and preferred partner Doctors’ Health Fund and to the AMAV Women in Medicine Committee.
