"This has been a fantastic program that has put fire back in my life and I don’t want to lose this motivation to continue doing things for myself. It’s about time I did that."
PACE training participant, March 2020
As a result of the PACE training things are happening and I'm grateful, thankful and very hopeful for more great things and opportunities to come.
PACE training participant, July 2019
It has been an amazing journey. I met new friends, discovered a lot about myself, and about Australian politics and health. It's a brilliant course, and really informative for women. Excellent...to bring together everyone onto the same platform.

The content was pitched at the perfect level and the activities were great! Thank you Amira for your support in organising – I am looking forward to the next session!
Intersectionality training participant
Previously I only understood intersectionality as a theoretical framework to consider issues, considering my privilege etc. Now I have a better understanding of how to practice intersectionality in my work.
PACE training participant, September 2019
I was very nervous when I joined this course because I was too shy to say anything. But now I learnt to just say it, just to shake it out. Now I can speak in front of all of you. I feel good!
Intersectionality training participant
Great training. I hope this is available to many people, and is regularly offered.
Intersectionality training participant
I left with a greater understanding of the complex forms of violence and the need for prevention strategies that reflect that complexity
Cross cultural training 1
I now understand cultural awareness as a process rather than a ‘competency mentality’ and an understanding that it is a collaborative approach rather than knowing all the right things.
Intersectionality 101 participant
I feel as though my own definition and way of describing intersectionality was very generalised and I have a much deeper understanding of it now.
