Do you want to better understand:

What constitutes hate speech
Hate crime and anti-discrimination legislation in Australia
Where you can report and what recourse you have
Antisemitism in Australia
Misogyny and sexism in contemporary spaces
Current issues like the banning of Nazi symbols, and online hate

The NCJWA has developed a three-part training series for Jewish Australian women to build knowledge and skills around identifying and responding to prejudice, discrimination and hate, to interrogate current experiences of antisemitism in Australia and online, and to understand how sexism and misogyny manifest for Jewish women.

Held the first Sunday morning in March, April and May, this training will be delivered by experts in the field, and will be an interactive training experience. For those attending all three sessions, you will receive a certificate of participation.

The sessions are:
