About

**This is a women’s only event**

Living in Australia can present unique opportunities and challenges for Muslim women, especially for those wearing the hijab. In many career fields, we as Muslim women not only stand out because of our gender, but also because of our Muslim identity.

Join us as we hear from accomplished Muslim women of diverse professional backgrounds in Perth. The panel discussion & QnA will also give you a chance to get your curiosity answered!
