Connar O’Gorman embarks on new career journey

Empower her Voice

The theme for Queensland Women’s Week 2023 is Empower her voice; secure her future. The theme builds on the momentum achieved through last year’s theme which called on women and girls to tell their stories as we strive for change. All of us now have a role to play in empowering those voices as we work together as a community to achieve gender equality.

The theme is a celebration of women and girls who have stood up to be heard and acknowledges the fundamental right of every woman and girl to equally participate and be safe in all areas of our society including education, the economy and workforce, politics and, importantly, at home.
