WATTLE Program

Welcome to the WATTLE Women ATTaining Leadership program. The new website is now launched at wattleprogram.org. We warmly welcome our university partners on board: @Swinburne @Deakin @latrobe @ANUniversity @Griffith_Uni @CurtinUni @RMIT

It’s been a brilliant day today, welcoming 60 WATTLE alumnae to the first in-person alumnae symposium. Amazing stories shared about the impact of WATTLE on the women’s careers, and the beautiful networks that have been made. #equity #leadership #universities

This week we’re holding the WATTLE leadership program for professional women - thank you to the 13 universities who have supported the program this week. Looking forward to building networks and opportunities with an amazing group of women!

This #IWD2022, @WattleProgram acknowledges the gender divide in the university sector in nearly every discipline: sciencegenderequity.org.au/gender-equity-… WATTLE thanks all of our supporters, participants and speakers as we work together for gender equity in Australian universities.

All ready to go for a week long leadership program @WattleProgram. Feel very privileged to take part, learning from the best women in leadership. Starting on a Sunday sets a new bar! #wattleprogram21
