Young multicultural women possess untapped potential, diverse lived experience and a unique perspective that is ready to transform Australian leadership.


One in two Australians are born overseas or have a parent born overseas, yet 91% of board seats are held by people from an Anglo-Celtic background.

Seat at the Table is a leadership immersion program that bridges the gap between young multicultural women and Boards who need to strengthen diversity. The program addresses the significant underrepresentation of young women from refugee and migrant backgrounds in leadership roles.

Watch the video below to learn about the impact of Seat at the Table so far.

Seat at the Table is now looking for funding partners to embark on the next iteration of the program.
