Collective Voice is a student-run committee focused on exploring social inequality within our community and around the world, particularly regarding women’s issues. We strongly believe in educating and actively supporting equality for women as well as minority groups across the globe. Each week, students come together to examine current political and social issues on a local and global scale, encouraging open-minded and reflective thinking skills. We aim to encourage feminist perspectives and support LGBTQI rights locally and internationally.

Established in 2010, the committee’s initiatives have included advocating for International Women’s Day, Wear it Purple Day events and the implementation of Q&A @ MLC School, a once-a-term forum allowing students and teachers to debate current affair issues with audience participation. Collective Voice provides a safe, progressive space for students of all backgrounds, cultures, belief systems, sexualities and genders to share and question the big issues that impact the world today.

This society will see our girls collaborate to unpack and understand issues that we face both locally and globally by capitalising on our connections with other Round Square schools.
