Walk a Day in Her Shoes

25 Jun 2025, 10:00am - 12:00pm
Alumni Lawn, UNSW Kensington
Two students walking together

Challenge perspectives on gender by walking 1 kilometre in high heels!

We're highlighting the silent struggles that women navigate in workplaces, leadership and society. 

Get involved by taking on one of these roles:

  • Walker – step into the simulation and experience a day uncovering gender bias
  • Spotter – gently guide Walkers through their journey, should they need it
  • Volunteer – help behind the scenes to make the day run smoothly
  • Supporter – amplify the message, help spread the word, and attend on the day along the route
  • Donor – contribute women’s shoes for use in the event

Whether you walk, watch, or help behind the scenes, every role makes a difference in having this important conversation.
