Host of the BPW Australia National Conference
Heather Veal
BPWA National Conference Coordinator
The National Conference is the gateway to fully understanding BPW, to experience the fellowship of like-minded women from across Australia and to learn what is happening in other states, nationally and internationally.
And your voice is important in our debates and discussions, helping to set BPWA's advocacy agenda for the coming term.
Jenny Tiernan
