This workshop depends on the timing of the Federal Election. If before the poll, will be an introduction to the various political parties' women's policy, or if after the poll an analysis of the Government elect's women's platform.
The workshop will involve a strategy session of lobbying for change, whether from a new Government, or continuing to expose the policy area neglect of the current one.
