International Women’s Day

Hanna is joined by FILEF members Margherita, Renata and Lorella for a compelling International Women’s Day special.

In this cross-generational round-table discussion we hear about the IWD demonstrations in Italy and the comparisons with the feminist and labour movements in Australia.

Margherita speaks about the importance of the trans-feminist movement in Italy, her reflections and experience as a migrant in Australia, and the importance of IWD in both countries and beyond.

Lorella and Renata speak about their years of involvement and work within the Australian Union movement, highlighting the historical wins and challenges faced by migrant women workers. Drawing on their first-hand accounts, they discuss the broader experiences of migrant women in Australian unions, the importance of industrial action, and the political agency and role of migrant women workers in Australia’s labour movement.
