Women take their questions to the AHRC in Adelaide -- but are still waiting for answers
In this episode, Emma and Lucy discuss the AHRC's 'The Answer is Human Rights' seminar in Adelaide, where women affected by the Commission's decisions — including members of the Lesbian Action Group — put their questions directly to AHRC Chief Executive Leanne Smith and Age Discrimination Commissioner Robert Fitzgerald. The exchange laid bare a critical unresolved question: how does the AHRC understand the costs matter in relation to the successful Lesbian Action Group appeal? They also discuss the needs of older women and how their sex-based protections cannot be ignored.
