International Women’s Day : Young Farmers Connect webinar

Join Young Farmers Connect webinar for a very special International Women’s Day event as we join the international movement and conversation about gender equality and a world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination for female farmers.

Young Farmers Connect webinar will take a deep dive into diversity through the lived experience of 4 amazing female farmers : Tanya Massy, Thanisa Adams, Oliva Awaritefe and Kate McBride; enriched with the published expertise of Dr Lucie Newsome and woven by our fellow change-maker and cherished storyteller Maree Lowes.

This years IWD2022 campaign theme is #BreakTheBias

Young Farmers Connect webinar will be exploring through conversation and interactive activities how we can imagine a gender-equal world for our female farmers and follow the core discussion points of this years IWD events :

• A world that is free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination.
• A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive.
• A world where difference is valued and celebrated.

This event fits perfectly with Young Farmers Connect’s celebrated inaugural publication “Together We Grow” and we are thrilled to have shared a story from each of our speakers on these pages.  The webinar is an opportunity to continue with our vision to elevate and celebrate the role of women in the sector and our effort to profile the amazing work of our female farmers and inspire the next generation.
