In this episode, Shae speaks with Tricia Malowney Disability and human rights advocate. Tricia is a proud woman with a disability who is passionate about advocating for the needs of women and girls with disabilities. Tricia believes it is important to provide women and girls with disabilities the information they need to make their own decisions and works hard to make disability and women’s organisations consider the rights and needs of women and girls with disabilities when delivering services.
Tricia understands that it is important for women and girls with disabilities to be able to contribute to policies and decisions that affect them and wants to work to improve barriers to participation created by ableism, misogyny and other forms of prejudice and discrimination.
Tricia has experience in women’s and disability sectors and is skilled in governance as a Director at Scope Australia, Western Health, Independent Disability Services and Australian Orthotics and Prosthetics Association. She was also the first chair of Women with Disabilities Victoria.
