WiRN: Women in Research Network

UNSW's leading forum for research-active women 

The Women in Research Network (WiRN) is UNSW's leading forum for research-active women to connect and collaborate to build an equitable and inclusive research culture at UNSW.  

    The WiRN works to progress gender equity across the University through the trifecta of support, information, and advocacy, 

    1. supports by encouraging women in research to come together to share experiences and network with colleagues, 
    2. informs by providing access to, and be a conduit for, communication pathways for events, skills-development and information,
    3. advocates by working to enhance the research culture at UNSW for women researchers through strategic engagement at faculty and university levels.
