Australia is back in the business of women's human rights. Australia has a proud history of involvement with the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), Jessie Street was a founding member of the CSW and the only Australian woman delegate at the meetings which founded the UN. "From Minister Plibersek's participation in the International Women's Day Panel, to the screening of FILM, to the ability to provide our good offices during the course of the negotiations, it was a delegation that restored Australia to a leadership position in the promotion of women's human rights on the international stage," reports Caroline Lambert of the YWCA.
