Victoria University
Get to know change-makers, leaders and storytellers - the people who make Victoria University a thriving place to work and study. Hosted by Vice-Chancellor Professor Adam Shoemaker.
Fast-forward to today, and Clare Hanlon is spearheading change for women in sport. Clare’s research has prompted major sporting teams to rethink their uniform policies, helping women and girls feel more comfortable on the field.
Now, her research has gone global with the support of PUMA - and the results are astounding.
I had a fantastic chat with Clare for the People of VU podcast. We ventured beyond the academic, delving into personal insights and addressing the pressing topic that's gripping the world today — the Women's World Cup.

From working on an LGBTQIA+ student learning module to advocating for the Hidden Disability Sunflower – we are one of the first universities to sign up as supporters – Tuesday has never been afraid to embrace the different and diverse.
Beyond this, Tuesday has travelled the world, was a teen tennis prodigy, and spoken their truth on stage and in publications. What can’t they do?
I was delighted to find out more about their life and inspiration in the latest episode of my People of VU podcast.
Tuesday is wise beyond their years, and their empathy and respect emanated through every word.
