This event has passed Get tickets

Event description

It is just over a century since women were first permitted to enter the legal profession in NSW. How far have the profession, the academy and the judiciary come in achieving gender equity in the law? Do initiatives aimed at “women in the law” still have currency? 

Justice Gleeson invites you to consider the value of intersectionality in the profession, and how we might foster diversity and inclusion moving forward.

On behalf of the UTS Faculty of Law, Brennan Justice and Leadership Program and the National Justice Project we invite current UTS Law students as well as our Law alumni community to hear from the Honourable Justice Jacqueline Gleeson SC followed by refreshments and networking.

Date: Monday 20th March 2022
Time: Registration opens at 5:30, we ask all guests to be seated for a 6:00pm sharp start, event concludes at 8:00PM
Venue: UTS Auditorium CB08.02.005
