On International Women's Day, students of all gender identities from across ACT school networks were invited to participate in a forum on equality, where students had the chance to pitch their ideas for creating equality in their school. Students didn’t shy away from discussing tough topics, brainstorming ideas to address issues such as bullying, body image and period poverty.
