International Women's Day Special Broadcast: A Feminist History Walking Tour

On 8 March, International Women's Day, Justine Costigan takes over Vital Bits for a special IWD broadcast. She's joined by Feminist Historian in Residence Barbara Wheeler, and CEO Keryn Negri of The Queen Victoria Women's Centre to discuss their Feminist History Walking Tour, in collaboration with Trades Hall. The tour takes participants on a journey through the city as they learn about three prominent Melbourne women activists – Helen Lothan Robertson, Dr Constance Stone and Zelda D'Aprano – feminists who led the way on equal pay, as well as professional health care for all women and children.

The Feminist History Walking Tour takes place on Friday 14 March.
