Lucy chats about the intention of the team behind the recent the inaugural #mumsmatter National Online Symposium themed A New Australian Narrative for Mums: Decolonising Motherhood.

We get an insight into the range of speakers that will share their own experiences of parenting, working with mothers, and organising community based events that will ask: how we can redefine motherhood in Australia?

The aim of #mumsmatter is to create a platform for different world views and experiences to be shared, and to image a new postpartum experience for future generations. With the Three Guiding Principles; Healthy mothers = Healthy Families = Healthy Communities = Healthy Planet.
