Backlash and Beyond; Power, progress and participation - AGEC Forum
Our Headline Member Event
AGEC is excited to invite Member Organisations to join us:
Backlash and Beyond, a dynamic, member‑driven working forum designed to gain expert insights, deepen and share perspectives, collaborate, and strengthen the collective power of our community.
This isn’t your typical sit‑and‑listen event. It’s a hands‑on, energy-filled space where your voice, your experience, and your curiosity genuinely matter. We have two days of seminars, speakers and workshops – and a cocktail style networking event in the evening. So many ways to be involved!
Why will you want to be there?
• Connect with and learn from leading industry experts who’ll share fresh insights on the challenges and opportunities shaping our global landscape.
• Hear from renowned speakers offering clarity, direction, and forward-thinking perspectives.
• Get involved in member workshops built to be collaborative, practical, and full of practical takeaways from other members.
• Be part of the movement: Your participation strengthens the AGEC Collective voice and drives better outcomes.
Featured speakers include:
AGEC Managing Director - Dr. Terry Fitzsimmons
Public Sector Gender Equality Commissioner for Victoria – Dr. Niki Vincent
Chair, Respect Victoria – Prof. Kate Fitzgibbon
