She will be joined by Amanda Lamont, Co-founder of the Australasian Women in Emergencies Network, and Professor Margaret Alston, Head of the Gender, Leadership and Social Sustainability Research Unit, Newcastle and one of Austraia's most prominent researchers on the impacts of climate disasters on women, including in Australia.
