The woman fighting to end sex discrimination in Australia

Australia has a new Sex Discrimination Commissioner.

Anna Cody will be tasked with tackling discrimination on the grounds of sex, sexual orientation and gender, as she continues implementing the remainder of her predecessor Kate Jenkins’ Respect at Work project.

Today, Sex Discrimination Commissioner Anna Cody discusses how her work establishing a domestic violence legal service that helps First Nations women and her recent role as the law school dean at Western Sydney University have shaped her approach to the role. And why it’s time for the country to take a wider view when it comes to building a fairer society.
