Over 3 days our National Council along with our Member Organisations came together in Hobart, Tasmanian to take part in some Capacity Building Training.

The training comprised of 3 core topics that were presented by Speakers & Facilitators who are experts in their fields.

On day 1, the morning commenced with a Welcome to Country by our Chair, Vivi Germanos-Koutsounadis followed by a Welcome to Hobart from the Australian Migrant and Refugee Women's Alliance, Executive Officer, Sela Taufa.  


We then moved into the first session of the day, Governance.  The Afternoon session covered Leadership training over 3 perspectives; Local, National and International Leadership.
