DEFGLIS Vice President Dr Joe Monteith's open letter on International Women's Day 2020.
Dear DEFGLIS members,
News
At our inaugural Perth event, DEFGLIS and PwC came together to network and celebrate inclusivity within the workplace. DEFGLIS Member Danie Bunting tells us about the successful night that brought members of DEFGLIS and GLEE@PwC closer together.
On Saturday 15 February, DEFGLIS members partnered with PwC and laughed their way into DEFGLIS’s inaugural Perth event. Making the most of Perth’s Fringe World Festival, DEFGLIS and GLEE@PwC members, enjoyed some not-so-healthy burgers, before being entertained by Scottish stand-up comedian Larry Dean.
The Australian Defence Force recently celebrated the contributions of the diverse sex, sexuality and gender (DSSG) community at the annual Military Pride Ball.
The DEFGLIS Board of Directors have met to appoint office-bearers and commenced business planning for 2020.
The first meeting of the new year involved the induction of new faces, appointment of office-bearers, and planning for a productive and exciting year delivering the objectives of the DEFGLIS Association.
We’ve commenced a busy period for the DEFGLIS Board, with one of our premier events just around the corner and our acceleration towards the Annual General Meeting. For this update, we give an insight into the past month’s work as discussed in September’s monthly Board Meeting.
