PBS radio: gender equity and International Women’s Day, 2020
Alisha joined Wallis and Kayah on PBS for an International Women’s Day discussion, bringing an artist’s perspective to gender equity, the gender spectrum and intersectionality. The conversation considered women and non-binary people whose intersecting identities have not historically been highlighted in International Women’s Day discussions. This is an example of Alisha’s public speaking and contribution to inclusive conversation before Soft Infrastructure’s current consulting work.
Staff education
Alisha’s presentations have included practical explanations of gender, sex and sexuality for gender equity groups, findings on inclusive facilities for Social Policy colleagues, and language-services review findings.
An ongoing learning program
At Maribyrnong, Alisha established Lunch and Learn sessions with colleagues, connecting staff with local social and cultural issues.
International knowledge exchange
As coordinator of the Australasia Intercultural Cities Network, Alisha chaired discussions, facilitated seminars, organised policy forums and prepared progress reports. She presented policy material to international delegates and supported shared learning between councils with different cultural contexts.
