Sunita Kotnala, an Indian-Australian woman, pioneered the inception of the inaugural Women's Shed in ACT. Fast forward three years, and the Shed is embarking on a mobile mission, with the goal of bringing its workshops to women who face barriers in visiting the Shed to acquire trade skills. Ms Kotnala believes that this endeavour will be particularly advantageous for employed women and refugees.
