International Women's Day 2022

In celebration of International Women's Day (IWD) on Monday 8 March 2022, ANZCA and the Gender Equity Sub-Committee (GESC) have spoken with fellows involved in gender equity research dating from 1993 to present day. Research participants include members of ANZCA and Australian Society of Anaesthetists (ASA).

In the following five short videos, researchers touch on gender biases observed in survey outcomes and also share their reflections on some of the gender challenges anaesthetists face today – focusing on work composition, job satisfaction, and primary caretaking. Dr Jane Carter and Dr Claire Stewart also address a new version of the survey being distributed this year on behalf of ANZCA and what they expect to find from the outcomes.

Dr Bridget Effeney interviews Dr Di Khursandi on her gender research study (1993).

Dr Catherine Ashes talks about part time work and primary care takers in anaesthesia (2010).

Dr Jane Carter and Dr Claire Stewart speak about their gender equity survey (2022).

Dr Jane Carter discusses the purpose of the gender equity survey she will be conducting with Dr Claire Stewart.

Dr Claire Stewart on how jurisdictional hospital systems might influence gender bias.
