Agenda

Walk-in lunch

Word of welcome by the moderator (to be announced) and opening statements by LNVH Chair Yvonne Benschop

Word of welcome 

Marian Baird is Professor of Gender and Employment Relations at the University of Sydney, Head of the Discipline of Work and Organisational Studies and Co-Director of the Women and Work Research Group in the University of Sydney Business School. In her lecture Marian will discuss what is involved if academics choose to be activists, the dilemmas which are encountered and the barriers which may be put in their way. She also considers the career tensions academics may experience when participating in the public sphere. Marian's experience in advocating for improving policies relating to women and work shows that while managing the tensions can be difficult, academics may find additional intrinsic reward and make a significant impact if they take an active role in translating their research into public policy.
