Event Details
Money on your mind? Let’s talk about it.
This workshop will explore pathways to improving your financial literacy and economic security. Learn tools to feel empowered to have healthier conversations about your finances.
The session will cover themes in the context of women, non-binary and gender diverse peoples’ experiences with money and financial wellness, including:
-Accessing free money management programs and financial guidance services
-Understanding financial abuse
-Navigating sensitive conversations about money
-Identifying support pathways
-Understanding the structural forces underpinning relationships with money
The workshop is delivered by WIRE (Women’s Information and Referral Exchange) in partnership with City of Melbourne and has been tailored to reflect on the needs of older women and gender diverse people, however all are welcome to attend. The conversation will consider the broader context of gender equity and the intersection between the experiences of women and gender diverse people and money, and the structural forces underpinning this relationship. A WIRE Support Worker will also be available at the session to provide extra, tailored assistance for those in attendance with further questions.
Join us for this face-to-face session at Kathleen Syme Library and Community Centre, with light refreshments provided on the day.
