21.01.2022 The Ernies for 2020 have been announced. What began as a joke has morphed into a fun but deadly attack on Australian male sexism. At the beginning of each year The Ernies fear that no one will say anything terrible during the year so they won’t be able to have an Ernies but they are never let down. While men continue to say terrible things about women, there will be an Ernies. There is also a Good Ernie to encourage men to behave better.

01.01.2022 Women's Agenda conducted a survey in November 2020 on careers. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women and their careers is yet to be known.
