Professor Jaya Dantas
President
Dear Members
I hope you all have had a wonderful start to 2024 and I wish you all a productive year. It gives me pleasure to present my report at the 2023 AGM, on activities from July 2022 to June 2023.
Our AGM this year was delayed and we were provided an extension by Fair Trading NSW until the end of February 2023.
The impacts on women are greater than ever with significant challenges due to
global conflicts, rise in cost of living, changes in the nature of employment, and climate changes, all of which impact women. Thus, the importance of higher education for women remains paramount and uncontested.
We extend our thanks to those of you who have already committed your membership for the 2023-24 year, and to those who will renew in the near future.
Your ongoing support and commitment to AGW is both appreciated and necessary for our Association to continue leading the conversation and initiatives in higher education.
I thank Dr Iryna Khodos (AGW Secretary), Dr Zeny Edwards OAM (AGW
CIR) and Alison Hayden (AGW treasurer) for their work and support during the
year.
I also thank the AGW council.
I share some highlights of the year, and I encourage you to take a
look at our website.
