The NSW Chapter and the Gender Equity task force (GET) was proud to host a very successful breakfast on International Women’s Day last week. Celebrating women in architecture, the breakfast featured Justine Clarke, the 2015 Marion Mahony prize winner, addressing her career and research work. The breakfast was set against the stunning harbour skyline at the Museum of Contemporary Art.<\/p>\n
