On International Women’s Day, we had the pleasure of speaking with The Honourable Anthe Philippides, a retired judge of the Queensland Court of Appeal, about the benefits of and need for a diverse legal profession and bench. Justice Philippides was the first woman of Hellenic heritage to be admitted as a barrister in Queensland in 1984 and to attain silk in Australia in 1999. Many would know her for her efforts to increase diversity in the profession and bring like-minded lawyers together to promote mental wellbeing and social inclusion for young lawyers through music and the arts more broadly. Special thanks must go to Ella Thomas, Eve Anderson and Geoff McLeod for their contributions to the production of this episode.
