FLEET’s goal is to achieve 30% representation of women at all levels across FLEET.
To begin to move towards this goal, we needed innovative approaches that would allow us to begin ‘shifting the dial’.
One innovative initiative that has met with success was FLEET’s new women-only Fellowships, offered in multiple locations, and across all fields of study in the Centre.
This was the first such initiative for a Centre funded by the Australian Research Council, and the number of applications was extremely high, indicating that the Fellowship was successful at locating talent overlooked in previous, more tightly targeted searches.
