Snapshots of the Australian legal system and victims of family violence: colliding kaleidoscopes and the gendered iceberg
The Women Lawyers Association ACT Invites you to their signature International Women's Day event: Snapshots of the Australian legal system and victims of family violence: colliding kaleidoscopes and the gendered iceberg
Professor Patricia Easteal AM, 2010 ACT Australian of the Year will explain how the unconscious gendered filtering of ‘reality’ in our culture (the iceberg of biases) can militate against the successful translation of the many laws and amendments enacted to better address violence against women.
Followed by drinks & canapés. ACT lawyers may be eligible to claim 1 CPD point in core area 4 (substantive law). Non-lawyers warmly welcome.
RSVP: Online by Monday 6 March 2017
