Australian Women’s Land Army
On the eve of International Women’s Day, join guest speaker India Dixon from State Library of Queensland as she discusses the formidable Australian Women’s Land Army. Formed in the depths of World War Two, the Land Army ensured the nation’s food supply in a time of great uncertainty, taking on agricultural work to allow more men to enlist. India will showcase Queensland’s stories and offer insight into the lives of the young women who served in this vital wartime effort. Not to be missed!
