About this event

Celebrating UNSW Women is a pioneering project to increase the visibility of women across UNSW’s public, physical and digital spaces. The collaborative project works across the University to ensure better representation of our remarkable and diverse UNSW community and is inclusive of any alumnae and former staff who identify as women. 

The three-phase project recognises UNSW women by renaming buildings and spaces across the Kensington campus, the development of a digital and physical Women’s Trail across the Kensington and Paddington campuses, and the development of an equitable naming policy aligned to the upcoming university-wide gender equity strategy.

Please join us, along with host UNSW Chancellor David Gonski AC and guest speakers Patricia O'Shane and Jacqueline Price, as we come together to showcase the incredible community of UNSW women in a permanent way, ensuring that they are celebrated and recognised for years to come.
