Women in Resources Inc. are a voluntary, not-for-profit member organisation that represents and promotes women in the resources sector in the Territory. The network originated out of a need identified by industry and driven by committed women in the sector. A committee consisting of 11 individuals represent the following sectors: construction, mining, oil and gas, transport and logistics and support services. Women in Resources works together with government, industry and community organisations to champion initiatives such as talks and networking events primarily aimed at bringing together women in varied job roles from all areas of the primary resources industry. Events are scheduled to run quarterly to bring women together to discuss points of interest, initiate strategies for increasing the female workforce and provide professional development through workshops and guest speakers.
