About

Girls Write Up is a daylong festival for teens aged 12–18 that teaches empowerment through writing and sharing stories; explores the relationship between language, gender and power; and examines the effects of unconscious bias on our sense of self.

Girls Write Up Canberra will feature founder of feminist journal Feminartsy Zoya Patel, scientist and educator Karlie Noon, journalist and editor of Vault magazine Neha Kale, and writer and manager of Sweatshop Winnie Dunn, along with many others. Participants will also have the opportunity to take part in a songwriting or slam poetry workshop. Presented in partnership with Noted Festival.
