  • Empower. Inspire. Connect
    EMPOWER. INSPIRE. CONNECT 28 SEPTEMBER - 2 OCTOBER 2020 PRESENTED BY ORGANISED BY SUPPORTING PARTNERS FOREWORD Future Female started as a dream of mine. I dreamt of a place where women like me are free to be ourselves, and pursue the life that we want. Along the journey, I crossed paths with people that shared this passion of mine. We joined together, putting in our heart and sweats, to make this space come true. I want to thank Study Melbourne – Emma, Diana and James, for your unwavering support towards international students and this conference. I also want to thank Victoria University – Natalie and Jasmin, for your trust, patience and expertise. Last but not least, the committee, Cheng, Sean, Prajuli and Veronica – your unique contribution is what makes Future Female special. This year has been tumultuous for everyone to say the least. For international students, it has been particularly challenging to go through a global pandemic being away from home, facing all the uncertainties alone. We decided to do our best in delivering Future Female to our community, hoping that this conference will continue to bring hope and stability to you, and to connect us together, even if it has to be through a computer screen. Future Female 2020 will bring to you a panel of inspiring and dynamic women each day. We will focus on topics that are relevant to our ever-changing world, the opportunities for us as future females, and the long-lasting impact that we can make. We hope that you will enjoy the sessions as much as we enjoyed crafting them.

    GameChangers Season 2: Episode 1 Maria Thattil Seth Robinson: Welcome to Game Changers, the show that's about playing by your own rules when it comes to your career. Join us as we speak with people who've taken the road less traveled and found their niche. I'm your host, Seth Robinson. This season, we're taking some time out to reconnect, exploring the ways our game changers of forming connections in the world by creating new communities, spaces, and technologies. Maria Thattil: I didn't want to say anything. They didn't know how to participate. And, for me, that kind of fear is paralyzing and it's paralyzing when you're trying to pursue progress. In order to progress and grow and learn, you need to be able to talk to unlearn. You need to be able to talk to dissect different perspectives. Seth Robinson: Today we're joined by a guest who has taken her voice to the global stage, reaching thousands and bringing them together to build a positive online community. Maria Thattil: My name is Maria Thattil. I am a former University of Melbourne student. I'm a writer, I'm a speaker, and I'm Miss Universe Australia 2020. Seth Robinson: So you have quite a few plates that you're spinning there. I believe you started studying a Bachelor of Science and then went onto business. How does that lead down this road you've taken with so many plates? Maria Thattil: I think that's the funniest and best way to describe it, because honestly, a creative multi-hyphen career does feel like that.
