Printed by xxxxxx ISBN 978-1-921607-38-7 March 2010 marks the 10th anniversary of the Victorian Honour Roll of Women – a time to celebrate and publicly recognise the achievements of remarkable women across Victoria. I am proud to present 20 new inductees to our Honour Roll, as women of outstanding achievement in areas as diverse as community services, communication, Indigenous affairs, multicultural affairs, health, law, education, science, medicine and social justice. We celebrate a remarkable group of women who have used their qualities of tenacity, vision, outstanding leadership, commitment and just plain hard work to succeed in their chosen field and have a lasting impact on their community. Whether they have worked behind the scenes in support of local communities or on the international stage, each of these women has created better opportunities for women in Victoria, in Australia and beyond. On this 10th anniversary, it is fitting to acknowledge all 458 women we have honoured over the past 10 years. All have excelled in their chosen fields and are testament to the wealth of talent we have in Victoria. Every one is a role model and their achievements stand as an inspiration to us all. Their generosity of spirit, their ingenuity and their dedication have marked these women for special mention. I hope you enjoy learning about the lives and achievements of the Victorian Honour Roll inductees. They continue a great tradition of Victorian women who have inspired and motivated others to make a difference in their own special way.
