Throughout her wide-ranging and illustrious career, Dr Kerryn Phelps has been a disruptor, not an imitator.

As she knows, it’s a position that can be difficult to navigate. Those who are breaking the mould rather than sticking to the status quo are often left without clear role models – whether male or female – to look to for guidance.

#HerVote is our new campaign created to elevate women’s voices and inform women’s opinions ahead of the 2019 federal election. Don’t miss out on our first #HerVote event in Sydney on Friday April 5, featuring today’s leading female politicians as well as upcoming female candidates.
