Final tickets! Join the Women’s Agenda team for our Women’s Health Summit on 1 September.
According to Sydney Swans CEO Matthew Pavlich, the club is “disappointed” after learning that team members have been involved in an “alleged incident”. (Victoria police are investigating an “alleged sexual assault”)
“We’re extremely shocked and disappointed that this has taken place and that the players have found themselves in this situation,” he said.
Today, lawyer Prabha Nandagopal examines how the CEO responded, and says it’s a style of response she hears too often, where the sentences are oriented to what it means for the organisation.
And Rita Nasr looks at the media response, with sports journalists going all in on “what will this mean for the Swans finals campaign!” stories and social media awash with some of the most grotesque and horrific takes imaginable.
Meanwhile, can we stop trying to teach women “resilience” to cope with workplace issues, when it’s actually the workplace that’s broken? Cathy Ngo delivers this timely message.
732 people have been charged with domestic violence offences in NSW following a three-day blitz. The numbers, again, highlight the scale of such violence across the state.
And meet Dr Nicole Kuepper-Russell, who wants Australia to dream bigger about a clean energy future designed for everyone.
