Women's History Month 2002 - Celebrating Women in Australian History http://www.trivium.net/womenshistorymonth
(To participate in the discussion forum you will need to register - just follow the on-screen instructions) From Monday 11 March to Friday 22 March I will be conducting a discussion for Women's History Month on women with disabilities and leadership - "Locking our daughters away". The aim is to explore the current position of women with disabilities in the context of where we have come from and what we would still like to achieve. I am particularly interested in women with disabilities achieving leadership positions and taking responsibility for making decisions about the community. At this stage I think we are still not being given the responsibility for making decisions for ourselves, much less running large companies and governments, running large budgets, and making the decisions that affect our whole community. Is the community still uncomfortable with assigning women with disabilities intelligence? Does it have a problem trusting women who it still cannot believe are just as capable of making the tough decisions? All are welcome, including our sisters overseas. log-on to http://www.trivium.net/womenshistorymonth and join in!
