the women's portfolio addresses and facilitates discussions of the underlying systemic barriers that female-identifying and non-binary students face within the legal world.

We recognise that the work of the women who preceded us is still not complete. So, we continue to educate, discuss, and act on issues that uniquely effect female-presenting members of our society. 

This portfolio is pursuing a way to provide a supportive space for women studying the legal profession to connect with each other and find a network of other students who share their passion for feminism, equality, and diversity in law.

women in law evening

This event was created to acknowledged and celebrate the work and achievements of legal professionals who identify as or with women. It aimed to connect our students with established women identifying legal professions in order to provide insight and advice about pursuing a career in law (private practice and in house) today - in partnership with the College of Law Australia.
