We-the-women is national email list of the new
AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S CONSTITUTIONAL NETWORK.
We-the-women is a place for women to discuss, network and promote
awareness of issues relevant to women and issues which women wish to
press in relation to the Australian Constitution.
The key issue at present is the Prime Minister's draft preamble to the
Constitution. http//www.pm.gov.au/media/pressrel/1999/preamble.htm
More broadly, and over time the list will also focus on the Republic and other
Constitutional reforms.
The AWCN aims to promote the outcomes of the Women's Constitutional
Convention and women's vigorous participation in Australian Constitutional
development. You can read the outcomes of the WCC on the web at
http//www.womensconv.dynamite.com.au/
In Stage 2 additional email lists will be established. This will include a
list for
discussion and networking on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues.
The Steering Committee welcomes expressions of interest from Aboriginal
and Torres Strait Islander women to provide a sounding board for the
establishment of the list please. Email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Read our web site for information about Stage 3.

For those of you attended the Women's Constitutional Convention - your
contributions at the WCC have formed a solid and, we think an historic
foundation - now we have to work to involve women generally and broaden
awareness and input - PLEASE use your networks to promote this email list.
For those who belong to organisations -we strongly encourage you to edit
this email for inclusion in your newsletters and alerts.
