You are invited by the FAAA WA State Community Inspire Committee to join them for their annual International Women's Day Breakfast Event on Thursday 12 March at the Duxton Hotel Ballroom.
This International Women's Day, join us for an inspiring event dedicated to empowering women and girls, under the UN Women Theme #BalanceTheScales. Together, let's highlight the need for fair and inclusive justice for women and girls globally.
Hear from our guest speaker, Rabia Siddique, a Humanitarian, Author and Keynote Speaker, as she shares her story.
Rabia is an international criminal and human rights lawyer, former senior British Army officer, hostage and abuse survivor, global change maker and trail blazer.
She was decorated by the late Queen Elizabeth II for her humanitarian work in the Middle East as well as in Asia, South America and Europe, and became well known for having successfully sued the British Armed Forces and Government for discrimination in a landmark case in 2008.
Rabia is the author of the bestselling book “Equal Justice – My Journey as a Woman, a Soldier and a Muslim” and has become a multi award winning storyteller, professional speaker, leadership, resilience and diversity consultant, non-executive board member, philanthropist, media commentator and advocate for women, children and our most marginalised communities.
Through her professional experience as an international lawyer, senior executive, military leader, board director and trusted mentor, and her lived experience as a humanitarian worker and trauma survivor, Rabia brings unique perspectives to her work like no other.
Her core purpose is the pursuit of multi-sector reform, cultural change, and leadership transformation, in order to combat one of the biggest crises of our time – the erosion of trust – in our institutions, organisations and leaders.
Rabia is driven to serve, empower and inspire leaders to earn and build trust; by fostering greater resilience, integrity, inclusion and belonging. This is the key to enhancing leadership and organisational credibility and ensuring sustainable success.
All event profit, and funds raised through fundraising activities on the day, will be donated to Ruah. They are a highly respected WA based organisation working with women and families affected by family and domestic violence, homelessness, and complex trauma.
We look forward to seeing you there!
FAAA WA State Community Inspire Committee.
