On the 8th of March, in celebration of International Women’s Day, YAIA will release our annual Young Women to Watch in International Affairs (YWTW) list. In Brisbane, our team will be hosting a panel event on Monday 17 March involving several female panellists from our YWTW lists on the theme March Forward.

Young people, and especially young women, will gain insight into opportunities available to them in a career in international affairs – as well as unique successes and challenges faced by women in this field. The event will include a moderated panel with an audience Q&A followed by optional networking.

Stay tuned for more details about our panellists!
