WEBxMUES: Women in Policy Making

"Women in Policy Making" was a powerful, thought-provoking collaboration between WEB and the Macquarie University Economics Society (MUES), spotlighting a career path too often overlooked by ambitious young women! The panel sparked genuine excitement as students explored how women can navigate diverse industries, collaborate to build strong, effective regulations, and amplify their voices in spaces where major decisions are made. Panelists brought incredible energy and authenticity, sharing real career journeys that inspired attendees to think bigger about their own futures. The joint nature of the event brought together two vibrant communities, creating a room full of curious minds and fresh perspectives. This was a phenomenal opportunity for students to discover policy making as a genuinely exciting and impactful career direction — one where women's leadership can shape entire industries and communities for the better. Events like this remind us why representation in every field matters, and why WEB continues to champion women stepping boldly into influential roles.
