“Good times” and “devoted hospitality” are purportedly the core values of the Swillhouse hospitality group, which owns and operates six of Sydney’s most popular venues. But an investigation from Nine newspapers has revealed what lies beneath: allegations of sexual assault, drink and drug abuse, and a deeply misogynistic culture that is pushing women out of the industry.

About us
Women's Agenda is a publication for career-minded, time-poor women who want to stay ahead of the conversation. Our team of coffee-loving, media junkies enjoy nothing more than waking up early to make your business day better. We determine the day's agenda before most people hit snooze on their smart phones, so you can get informed and productive. Our morning update features an edit of the day's key issues - a quick conversational scan to help you prepare for any elevator ride - as well as our latest views on making careers, work and business better for women. We're an independent publication first launched by Private Media in 2012 and acquired by its founding editor Angela Priestley in 2016. Our business survives off advertising, sponsors, and by helping organisations with content strategy and marketing, especially those looking to engage women. After publishing more than 1000 newsletters, 7000 stories and managing dozens of events, we intimately understand the needs and desires of career-minded, time-poor women. Indeed, we are such women ourselves! We're busy and sleep deprived but seriously passionate about what we do. We also all work flexibly, managing priorities ranging from kids, to travel, to writing books and building businesses. Get in touch with us at admin@womensagenda.com.au

Financial products are being systematically weaponised by perpetrators to harm women. Such abuse is more widespread than we think and can be a precursor to other forms of violence. Federal MP Zaneta Mascarenhas shares some of the heartbreaking stats and stories she's hearing as part of the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Corporations and Financial Services.
Financial abuse is a touchpoint in the fight against domestic violence

The Australian music industry is full of talented women but "glass walls" remain. This year's Australian Women in Music (AWM) Conference and Awards program aims to shift the dial, celebrating women in music and addressing the barriers that still remain. Kate Jenkins AO is joining the program, noting that equality in the sector is long overdue and that the conference addresses how to make "music safe, fair and respectful."

Almost sixty years ago, Australian feminist activist Merle Thornton chained herself to the Regatta Hotel in Brisbane. She, alongside Rosalie Bogner, were demanding the ban on women drinking in pubs be abolished. Now, the Queensland government is erecting a statue near the pub in her honour. Cheers to that! https://lnkd.in/gY6PHpWv
