Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the Association of Non-English Speaking Background Women of Australia and the Women's Rights Action Network Australia, I am delighted to be forwarding to you first notice of a one day seminar to be held in Sydney on 23 February, to focus on Race and Gender and the World Conference Against Racism. The Conference is being held the day after the 3 day Indigenous Peoples and Racism Regional Meeting for the WCAR [www.RacismConference.com], and will bring together a really tremendous group of speakers and workshop participants. There is no registration fee for the one day seminar, and we hope that many people will be able to join us as we explore the intersections of gender and race in Australia. We would be very grateful if you could forward this flyer to friends and colleagues, include it in mailouts, or link to the wrana website, which will shortly have this flyer on it [! - www.nwjc.org.au/wrana].
