A Podcast of One's Own with Julia Gillard

Julia Gillard, the only woman to have served as Prime Minister of Australia sits down for insightful, moving and thought-provoking conversations with some of the most interesting people from around the world working to advance gender equality – whether that's by actively dismantling gender-based barriers, or by being inspirational trailblazers in their field. We'll bring you stories from the worlds of business, entertainment, media, sport and many more, shining a light on people doing amazing things that you might not have heard about, and learning more about those we already know and love. Julia presents a podcast in her role as Founder and Chair of the [Global Institute for Women's Leadership] (https://giwl.anu.edu.au/) (GIWL). GIWL is a world-leading research institute working to advance gender equality within workplaces, communities and societies. The podcast is produced by the GIWL team at the Australian National University, Canberra, with support from our sister institute at King's College London. Earnings from the podcast go back into the Institute, supporting the work we do to advance gender equality in Australia and the Asia Pacific, and beyond. To stay up to date with the Institute’s work go to [giwl.anu.edu.au] (https://giwl.anu.edu.au/) and [sign up to our updates] (https://giwl.anu.edu.au/get-involved) , or follow us on social media [@GIWLANU] (https://www.instagram.com/giwlanu/) . You can also find [@APodcastofOnesOwn] (https://www.instagram.com/apodcastofonesown/) on Instagram. The team at A Podcast of One's Own acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.
