Show Notes

Part 5 of How Far We’ve Come, a 6-part dive into the history of women's financial freedom and independence in Australia. Fun fact: Oz was one of the first countries to make gender discrimination unlawful. The 1984 Sex Discrimination Act ensured the right of women to have equal access to employment, outlawed discrimination based on gender and made sexual harassment in the workplace illegal for the first time.
