Women working together is one significant step that women in every sector agencies should take in order to tackle women issues; both personally and professionally. This has been recognised by the Law and Justice Sector's Cross-Cutting Issue (CCI) Activities Management Team (AMT) where a meeting was facilitated for all female officers of the Department of Justice and Attorney General (DJAG) recently. Under the Law and Justice Sector Gender Strategy, gender equality is sustainable to development and poverty reduction; and it is a key issue for the Sector. More than 35 female officers from all division of the department attended the meeting where they outlined many of the pressing issues that affected them personally and professionally. The meeting was aimed to strengthen their networks, creating linkages with each other; and most importantly to identify focus areas where women can empower to promote professionalism and personal leadership capabilities. This meeting facilitated by the CCI AMT is just the first of four meetings which will be carried out later this year. Female staff from all professions in the State Solicitors Office, Solicitor Generals Office, Community Based Corrections (CBC), Executive Management, Human Resource Management and many other divisions attended the one-day meeting at the Sir Buri Haus at Waigani.
