Statement from the FiLiA Trustees on the FiLiA Party

Attendees may be aware of the unacceptable behaviour of two individuals last night at the FiLiA party.

Please be assured that these individuals were removed as swiftly as possible and were not permitted to attend the conference today. We have zero tolerance for aggressive or intimidating behaviour and harassment towards our speakers, volunteers and attendees.

We are aware that the women who were ejected have shared social media posts and videos, which significantly misrepresent the events of last night. The matter is now in the hands of the police.

Thank you to all the speakers and volunteers as without them this event would not be possible.

Please speak to a FiLiA trustee should you have any concerns.

Sisterhood and solidarity,

The FiLiA Trustees
