Women for Election workshops

NSW has fewer female Councillors than any other Australian state.  Women for Election Australia is holding a series of workshops across the state to provide women with the key knowledge, tools, and techniques to enable them to run for office, be the best candidate they can be or assist another woman with her political campaign.
