It really is such an honour to be out here, to
welcome you all to the 2025
Victorian Honour Roll of Women.
- It’s a massive list of all the people who've done incredible things
before me, and I'm so excited to now be part of this list as well.
The Honour Roll is an absolute privilege.
What it means is that we are being recognised for doing something nice
in the community and being able to help people that the way that we intend.
It's a great tribute to women and a great opportunity
to show the women that come after us what they can do.
It's like writing an alternative history
where women are visible, recognised for the contributions
they make, and encouraged to step up and do more.
- None of us do it for the recognition, but it's just like a little bit
nice to know that our achievements are not going unnoticed.
To me, it's about speaking truth.
It's about uplifting each other.
As I think we have to lead in a system where a lot of truth has been taken away.
This Honour Roll Means,
A lot more than ever.
I think the Honour Roll for me, is just an opportunity to pay tribute
to all of those amazing women that are out there that touch all of our lives,
and that don't always get the recognition that they deserve.
