Honour a Woman – nominations hackathon

Thanks so much to those that were at the Honour a Woman hackathon last week – so much experience, enthusiasm and passion in the room!

Five women come together for the Honour a Woman nomination hackathon.. They are sitting around a table, talking, with notebooks in front of them. A whiteboard is in the background.

After introducing ourselves, the group worked through some tips and advice on how to make applications for Australian Honours and then came up with a list of women we would like to nominate.

Then we established small working groups to work on some of those nominations  and we now have 10 (10!) applications in the pipeline! Awesome work, folks!
