Online: Working in and with Government to advance international aid and development goals

  • Online Online via Zoom (map)

Watch the event recording

Our event is focused on working in, and with, government in a range of roles.

Join us to hear from speakers who are working with government to:

  • develop policy and legislation

  • influence parliamentarians

  • fund and provide oversight of aid programs

  • monitor elections.

Speakers will also provide an insight into the motivation that took them into their current role, what helped their career advance, and the challenges they faced on their journeys.

The event will be a relaxed chat where you will have the opportunity to network with other women working in the aid and development sector over a glass of wine.

Cost: Free for members, $5 online
