In conversation: Rosie Batty
The Australian National Committee for UN Women is proud to announce it will be hosting Australian of the Year Rosie Batty In Conversation. Family violence campaigner Rosie Batty is the 2015 Australian of the Year and the Pride of Australia’s National Courage Medal recipient. Rosie is a leader in the crusade against domestic violence and has turned her personal tragedy into a fight to help others. Rosie’s name became synonymous with the words courage and resilience. Only hours after her son’s life was tragically taken, Rosie gave voice to many thousands of victims of domestic violence who had until then remained unheard. Rosie will reflect on her time as Australian of the Year, and discuss her priorities with regards to the legal, policy and service support needed to end violence against women.
