Professor Jaya Dantas
President.
Dear Members
A very warm welcome to all members to the AGW 2024 and I hope you all have had a successful 2024, as we head into the final month of the year.
It gives me pleasure to present the AGW annual report at the AGM, on activities from July 2023 to June 2024.
Globally, it has been a challenging year for higher education with the ongoing conflicts severely impacting women and girls and higher education. Universities have been destroyed, academics and students displayed and critical impacts on research facilities.
The impacts on women are greater than ever with significant challenges due to inflation, rise in cost of living, changes in the nature of employment, and climate changes, all of which impact women.
Thus, the importance of higher education for women and girls remains paramount and uncontested.
We extend our thanks to those of you who have already committed your membership for the 2024-25 year, and to those who will renew in the near future.
Your ongoing support and commitment to AGW is both appreciated and necessary.
I thank the AGW executive and the council for their support. I share some highlights of the year, and I encourage you to take a look at our website. https://www.australiangradwomen.org.au
