Welcome back to The Crux for 2024! The team at Women’s Agenda are well-rested and ready to get stuck back into reporting on the biggest issues faced by women in Australia and around the world.
In our first episode for 2024, we start with a couple of great wins, including Mar Galcerán becoming the first parliamentarian in Spain with Down syndrome, as well as Naomi Osaka’s open vulnerability about returning to tennis after childbirth.
It’s a record-breaking year for democracy around the world – but will we get proper representation of women leaders that we so desperately need? It doesn’t look like it. Plus – how on earth are Australia’s richest people making $1.5 million per hour? And how on earth do we stop it?
Stories from this week include:
- Mar Galcerán is Spain’s first parliamentarian with Down syndrome
- Naomi Osaka’s open vulnerability on tennis as a new mother is a win
- Men set to still dominate leadership this record-breaking election year but some firsts ahead for women
- Australia’s three richest people have made $1.5 million per hour since 2020. How on earth do we stop this?
