Susan Harris-Rimmer in world’s top 100 Most Influential People in Gender Policy

Associate Professor Susan Harris-Rimmer has been named in Apolitical’s world’s 100 Most Influential People in Gender Policy announced today.
The list honours and celebrates women and men making the world more equitable, whether they exert influence through policymaking, research or advocacy.
Growing up in the the small NSW town of Coonabarabran in outback Australia the young Susan had no knowledge of university life or the business of government.
“Education transformed my life. I want to help other rural girls achieve whatever they can imagine, to open up horizons of choice and ambition,” she said.
“My research and policy work is grounded in the women’s movement in Australia and the region. I want my work to be connected, useful, and to generate ideas for advocacy.
“It is a privilege to make sure the experience of women and girls surviving conflict, building peace and seeking justice is recorded, analysed, and above all, celebrated.”
