Women on Stage at National Republican Lecture

Dr Clare Wright, television presenter and author of a new book about the women on the Ballarat goldfields (see News Update of 31 December 2012) and Associate Professor Natasha Cica, Director of the Inglis Clark Centre for Civil Society at the University of Tasmania, join headline act Peter Fitzsimons for the NRL at Monash University.  This is the first time since Julie Bishop’s 2008 lecture that women have stood behind an NRL microphone.  It is about time a woman again gave the NRL in her own right.
