The recording of this panel discussion is now available on ABC Big Ideas here:

I attended this talk, and found it a bit disappointing. There were panel members form the US, the UK and Australia. Apparently they spoke about how some countries are ahead in some areas and some are ahead in others when they were in the green room backstage. i suspect that was the conversation I would have preferred to hear. There is much talk here about American politics and, if I recall correctly, nothing about women in a global context. But some encouragement and insight and points of interest. The most animated part was the Q&A.

Let me know what you think.
