CQUniversity Dean of Education Professor Helen Huntly is pictured with solicitor Bronwny Zelinski and Councillor Lynne Forgan, fellow guest speakers at an International Women's Day function in Bundaberg recently.

Helen was the guest of the Bundaberg Branch of the Justice of the Peace organisation, and shared her insights about the origins of International Women's Day, and her own professional growth, from secondary teacher to university academic.

The function was well-attended and gave local women (and men) an opportunity to ‘share their stories', the theme of this year's local event.
