When women in NSW won the vote in 1902 some thought the fight was over – but in fact, it was just beginning. The voices of women still weren't being heard in the places where the big decisions were being made: parliament, courts and government.

In her talk, constitutional law expert Anne Twomey will discuss the struggles of the past and the future for women and Indigenous Australians to be heard by our law-makers.
