Julia Gillard is a former politician who served as the 27th Prime Minister of Australia.
In the lead up to International Women's Day, we will be joined by Julia Gillard as she discusses her new book, Not Now, Not Ever: Ten years on from the misogyny speech.
A decade ago, Julia stood up in the Australian Parliament and made an impassioned stand against misogyny and sexism.
Yet despite some progress in recognising and tackling discrimination and inequity, misogynist stereotypes still exist and are particularly evident in attitudes towards women in positions of authority - as Australia's first – and to date, only – female Australian Prime Minister reflects on.
Since leaving office, Julia has dedicated her time to advocacy, governance roles and writing. She is the founder and Chair of the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership at King's College London and Chair of Wellcome, a global charitable foundation that supports science to solve urgent worldwide health challenges.
Julia will be interviewed by Stella Creasy, MP for the London constituency of Walthamstow.
